Description
To provoke, or to agitate in the language of community organizing, is to hold each other accountable to our highest commitments and noblest aspirations. This course will have the students agitate their theologies and in doing so, learn to agitate each other. In addition, students will learn the methods and content of faith-based community organizing, including a robust understanding of organizing people and money to build power that enables action in the public realm.
