New Age. Politics. Sociology. Nonfiction. HTML: In the tradition of Octavia Butler, here is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want. Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically. A resolutely materialist spirituality based equally on science and science fiction: a wild feminist and afro-futurist ride! adrienne maree brown, co-editor of Octavia's Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, is a social justice facilitator, healer, and doula living in Detroit. .… (mais)

There may be useful information in here but it is so disorganised and chaotic it's hard to sift it out.

Far too much pseudoscience to take much of what the author is proposing seriously. (

Emergent strategy is the approach being used in an equity and diversity training I am taking. I read the book to get a background sense of what the approach means. The writing to me is quite non-linear, a style I am not used to, so it was slow going and meant much re-reading of passages. In the end, I think I have enough of what I need to know. (

Nonlinear, genre-defying deep reflection on how to be a human in community and change the world. This is a real open hearted work that will provoke and continue the conversation it is part of. (

I feel like I had a full-body experience with this book. I read the first half, went to the Allied Media conference and got to see the author speak, then read the second half. Has absolutely changed the way I view the world. Yes, yes, and more yes. (

brown is an important figure in progressive organizing, and this book is probably a must-read. Or at least a must-skim: sometimes it strays into the woo-woo, and I think it could have used more professional editing. I found the appendices the most helpful -- she gives some practical ideas about meeting and organizational structure that I look forward to trying out. (
