Long Arc: Heart Sparks + Strikes IV

February 12, 2020 – April 7, 2020

How might we...

  • Base Building: How might we improve our engagement with our members/base to build power?
  • How might I invite a small group to invest relationally and strategically to vision over 7 generations (e.g. long term)?
  • How might we create communities rooted in freedom and liberation for all people?
  • How might we develop an organizing strategy rooted in a long arc, with the power to win a just and equitable city and state?

Hypothesis

Connecting as a breakfast club, echo to GC’s founding, then envisioning our desired future will make strategic impact, immediately and lasting, in our organizing.

Design

Invite people to a breakfast club and open conversation.

 

Metrics

GOAL | MEASURE

  • We spend time embodying our future selves for a portion. 
  • People see and feel the strategic value now of doing this future thinking work.  This as a necessity rather than a luxury.
  • 3-4 people who want to be part of ongoing crew of people to think about what comes next and building momentum and action forward.

Learnings

Paused and pivoted due to COVID-19. See next iteration for pivot.

Decisions

Conduct another iteration of this experiment.
