Thinking Strategically about the Antiwar Movement
During the the week of actions starting March 15, there was a flurry of media around the questions: what’s next for the antiwar movement? where to from here? I went to a panel organized by the Heads Up collective, I produced a program for KPFA, and there were tons of newspaper articles and radio stories.
I’d like to give a shout-out to the War Resisters League, for prioritizing listening and learning from the movement. Organizer Matthew Smucker is working on a report that details finding from interviewing over 100 grassroots organizers around the country. You can get a preview of the findings from his new article in The Indypendent: “What is to be done? Assessing the Antiwar Movement” Big ups to WRL for thinking long term, past the next big anniversary or march or demo.
