Let This Radicalize You Workbook

This workbook is intended as an extension of our book Let This Radicalize You. It was created to feature resources that we couldn't fit in the book, including other helpful books, essays, wisdom from veteran organizers, and more.

Educator and activist Ursula Wolfe-Rocca drafted the "Souped-Up Study Guide," which is the core of this workbook. The other components are included as a supplement to the guide. We've designed it so that it can also be used by independent study groups and individuals outside of group settings.
