Offer[s] a fundamentally more valuable way to think about the challenge of building people power than the stale and repetitive debate between those who want Democrats to downplay social justice issues and merely focus on policies that poll well with swing voters... and those who want Democrats to tailor their messaging towards expanding their base., By motivating future research that will investigate these topics and more, Prisms ' unique voice of a muscular optimism provides guideposts for advancing the book's concluding vision of deepening our understanding of 'how participation translates into political influence.', Vivid, accessible, and keenly analytic, Prisms of the People provides an invaluable guide and inspiration for the politics of this moment., In this moment of racial reckoning in the US, this book brings an urgently needed examination of how movements rooted in black and brown people actually build power for change. This book should be read by anyone who wants to understand the messy but urgently needed path to people-powered political change., Prisms of the People provides answers to a fundamental question of our time: how can we rewire American democracy from the bottom up so that it includes all voices equally? Forging impulses of Tocqueville and Alinsky into a twenty-first-century recipe for participatory activism, the authorsshow how disenfranchised people across America built organizations that were vital democratic spaces in which they transformed each other into more capable members and leaders., Han, McKenna, and Oyakawa remind us of the transformative capacity of social movements. When movements are committed to an inclusive vision of 'the people,' they can help us reimagine what is possible., Prisms of the People provides more than a hint about how to build and sustain powerful community organizations, an approach firmly rooted in principles of inclusion and engagement rather than boilerplate routines or recipes. The difficult approach makes all kinds of sense: saving democracy takes democratic organizing., Whither US democracy? In this compelling and deeply informed book, Han, McKenna, and Oyakawa challenge accounts of collective action as leaderless, rudderless, and therefore bound to fail. Rather they uncover a prismatic politics that is people-powered, strategic, nimble, and full of possibility. With intellectual rigor, theoretical originality, and incisive analysis, they offer a renewed vision for democratic political participation: an inclusive, vital, and enduring process, never perfected or completed, but ever attuned to new social conditions., Prisms of the People ?provides answers to a fundamental question of our time: how can we rewire American democracy from the bottom up so that it includes all voices equally? Forging impulses of Tocqueville and Alinsky into a twenty-first-century recipe for participatory activism, the authors?show how disenfranchised people across America built organizations that were vital democratic spaces in which they transformed each other into more capable members and leaders., In their compact but ambitious Prisms of the People , Hahrie Han, Elizabeth McKenna, and Michelle Oyakawa suggest that contemporary poitical practice and scholarship have overemphasized 'numbers' at the expense of deeper consideration of questions of worthiness, unity, and commitment.

Synopsis
Grassroots organizing and collective action have always been fundamental to American democracy but have been burgeoning since the 2016 election, as people struggle to make their voices heard in this moment of societal upheaval. Unfortunately much of that action has not had the kind of impact participants might want, especially among movements representing the poor and marginalized who often have the most at stake when it comes to rights and equality. Yet, some instances of collective action have succeeded. What's the difference between a movement that wins victories for its constituents, and one that fails? What are the factors that make collective action powerful? Prisms of the People addresses those questions and more. Using data from six movement organizations--including a coalition that organized a 104-day protest in Phoenix in 2010 and another that helped restore voting rights to the formerly incarcerated in Virginia--Hahrie Han, Elizabeth McKenna, and Michelle Oyakawa show that the power of successful movements most often is rooted in their ability to act as "prisms of the people," turning participation into political power just as prisms transform white light into rainbows. Understanding the organizational design choices that shape the people, their leaders, and their strategies can help us understand how grassroots groups achieve their goals. Linking strong scholarship to a deep understanding of the needs and outlook of activists, Prisms of the People is the perfect book for our moment--for understanding what's happening and propelling it forward., Grassroots organizing and collective action have always been fundamental to American democracy but have been burgeoning since the 2016 election, as people struggle to make their voices heard in this moment of societal upheaval.

Linking strong scholarship to a deep understanding of the needs and outlook of activists, Prisms of the People is the perfect book for our moment-for understanding what's happening and propelling it forward., Grassroots collective action has been exploding in the United States and around the world. Many of these efforts have succeeded despite a lack of the resources we think essential to successful collective action. What enables these grassroots groups to successfully promote social change for those on the margins of our society? Prisms of the People uses data from six movement organizations to show the strategies that successful movements use to transform people's participation into political power, by becoming "prisms of the people." Linking strong scholarship to a deep understanding of the needs and outlook of activists, that is the perfect book for what's happening now to propel change. Book jacket.
