The FVN Handbook - by Black Lawrence Press (Paperback)

About the Book

"We are the Fierce Vulnerability Network, a constellation of direct action teams positioned at the intersection of racial healing and climate justice. Fueled by fierce vulnerability, the power of emergence, and the promptings of our own vocations, we practice reparations and take direct action together"--

Book Synopsis

The principles and practices contained in this Handbook, which speaks to organizing at the intersection of racial healing and climate justice, are thoughtful, pragmatic, and empowering. Concepts anchoring The FVN Handbook, including decentralization, emergence, and experimentation, are critically important to addressing the biggest challenges of our time. I loved the Handbooks' relational focus, its weaving together of direct action and peacebuilding approaches, and how it emphasized the inextricable linkages between personal, interpersonal, societal, and structural change. The FVN Handbook is a powerful aid to our collective efforts to reimagine and change the world. -Maria J. Stephan
