For readers of This is an Uprising who are interested in finding more of our writing about social movements, momentum, and how to sustain powerful surges of resistance, we invite you to check out the Whirlwind Institute, a social change strategy center. It’s a new organization we created to make available more practical movement theory – analysis that aims to both illuminate how social movements combat injustice and offer organizers useful frameworks for thinking about their work.
Instead of posting articles here, we’re now putting all our new content on the Whirlwind Institute website. You can check it out here!
You can also sign up for our Substack, Dispatches from the Whirlwind, to receive our latest articles and essays by email.
At the site, we have organized our strategy research into seven major project areas: social movement ecology, momentum and mass protest, inside-outside strategy, impact tracking, ideology, movement history, and alternatives. We plan to continue expanding with more content in the future. In addition to long-form articles and in-depth reports, we look forward to adding more webinars and podcasts, as well as additional handouts for use in group discussions and trainings.
We hope you will click through the site and explore the pages!
