Circles of Concern: The Secret Sauce of Social Movements

From nature’s viewpoint, people are one species. Categories such as race, class,
nation, religion and even many gender roles are human constructs. Yet the world
is riven by exploitation and violence driven by these perceived divisions at an epicmoment of demographic change toward the U.S. becoming a majority minority
nation.
john a. powell
, Director of U.C. Berkeley’s Haas Institute for a Fair and
Inclusive Society, and
Manuel Pastor
, Director of the Program for Environmental and
Regional Equity at University of Southern California, show how to build effective
movements to overcome these divisions and come together to solve the planetary
emergency that threatens our common home.
