“Emergent Strategy is an adaptive facilitation approach that engages the subtle, yet powerful spiritual and emotional needs of people .”
Mia Herndon of the Emergent Strategy Ideation Institute.

Adrienne Maree Brown is a powerful change maker with a hefty body of work built in large part around this concept of "Emergent Strategy". Her work includes this series of books that explore themes such as finding deep joy in activism, transformative justice, black feminist thinking and more. There are podcasts, activism networks, inspired literature and more surrounding her work. This study group intends to deeply study her work, rooted in the recommended 12 book series that includes work from 10 other authors. To pay respect to emergence, the group may shift to work with other study methods dependent on what feels most in alignment!

In this BRAND NEW ENDEAVOR we will be starting with her root text, "Emergent Strategy". Book club meets self development study group meets activism network.

**About Emergent Strategy:**

"In the tradition of Octavia Butler, radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want.

Inspired by Octavia Butler's explorations of our human relationship to change, *Emergent Strategy* is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help designed to shape the futures we want to live. Change is constant. The world is in a continual state of flux. It is a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, this book invites us to feel, map, assess, and learn from the swirling patterns around us in order to better understand and influence them as they happen. This is a resolutely materialist “spirituality” based equally on science and science fiction, a visionary incantation to transform that which ultimately transforms us."
