This is me thinking out loud, carefully and practically, about how real political change actually happens — based on history, organising in Brixton since I was imprisoned, and a lot of experience inside movements that worked… and some that didn’t.
I’m trying to lay out a usable framework for building people power in the conditions we actually face now: climate collapse, democratic breakdown, and the fast rise of authoritarian politics.

Other good next steps:
- Share this with people you organise with
- Watch it together and argue about it
- Start small, but start with a strategy
People power has remade the world before.
It can do it again.
