How to navigate strategic disagreements in activist groups

Our activist collective has been working on housing justice for three years and some of us want to engage with electoral politics while others see that as selling out to the system we're fighting. The divide is getting personal and we're losing people who feel like their approach isn't valued.

More people experience this than they realize.
