Thanks for this, lots of great top level thoughts for how we move forward. What’s an example of a pledge that has worked?

Pledges are a starting point for prompting discussions and informing behaviors, notably within the workplace, places of worship, or other social groups. Interesting study on the effect of pledges on youth voter turnout: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5973556/

Oh this is great, thanks. Interested to know how they might do good work since I feel like movement folks have moved away from large petitions as a tactic.

Just finally got around to reading that earlier this evening. Excellent work. I found myself wishing I knew who to connect with to get in on these well-organized widespread groups. But of course, I remembered then Timothy Snyder saying we need to establish our privacy. I do hope to learn more.
