Scenario

When activist groups can't agree on tactics for change

Our activist collective has been pushing for police accountability in our city for three years, but half of us think we need to work within the system and half think that's just legitimizing oppression. Every strategy meeting turns into the same philosophical argument and meanwhile nothing is getting done.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Fundamental disagreements about theory of change are paralyzing collective action, with each faction believing the other's approach is counterproductive.
