Despite what we've been told, the most critical mainspring of social change isn't coalition building or problem analysis. It's healing: deep, whole, and systemic, inside and out. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHere, Shawn Ginwright, PhD, breaks down the common myths of social movements--a set of deeply ingrained beliefs that actually hold us back from healing and achieving sustainable systemic change. He shows us why these frames don't work, proposing instead four revolutionary pivots for better activism and collective leadership: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAwareness\u003c\/b\u003e from lens to mirror\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eConnection\u003c\/b\u003e from transactional to transformative relationships\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eVision\u003c\/b\u003e from problem-fixing to possibility-creating\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePresence\u003c\/b\u003e from hustle to flow \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSupplemented with reflections, prompts, cutting-edge research, and the author's own insights and lived experience as an African American social scientist, professor, and movement builder, \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Four Pivots\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003ehelps us uncover our blind spots. It shows us how to discover new lenses and boldly assert our need for connection, transformation, trust, wholeness, and healing.
