Episode 18: Emergent Strategy with Hannah Baptiste




The Lit Review Podcast show

Summary: We sat down to chat with Hannah Baptiste about adrienne maree brown's newest book: Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds. Inspired by Octavia Butler's explorations of our human relationship to change, Emergent Strategy is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help designed to shape the futures we want to live. As brown argues, change is constant. The world is in a continual state of flux. It is a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, this book invites us to feel, map, assess, and learn from the swirling patterns around us in order to better understand and influence them as they happen. Check out this episode to learn more about the core principles of emergent strategy and what it means for our movements.
