FEATURED: 2 workshops with C T Butler
Monday and Tuesday at 1pm: Consensus: So That All Voices May Be Heard, a workshop with C.T. Butler come either day.
Confused, frustrated, hopeful, or exhausted with consensus so far? Understand direct democracy? Come to this workshop to deepen your understanding of what consensus is and is not, its structure and its inherent paradigm shifts. What’s wrong with voting? How can groups handle dominant people? Does consensus have to take so long? Bring your questions to C.T.!
C.T. Lawrence Butler is co-founder of Food Not Bombs. Butler’s latest book, Consensus for Cities, is designed for groups of up to 100,000. As a front line activist, Butler has been arrested over fifty times in non-violent direct action.
