LDSJ Strategy Summit will be a multi-part public programming series that brings together movement leaders, organizers, and academics to discuss key strategic questions facing the movement at this juncture. The proposal is to host two summits in the Fall (October, December) and three in the Spring (February, March, and April).

Purpose:

This peer learning series will bring together organizers and campaigners working for racial, gender, economic, and tech justice interested in exploring effective strategies to challenge concentrated tech power in their sectors. The series will ground in a structural power analysis of tech, use cohort-driven case studies to apply strategic thinking to campaigns that incorporate tech justice and explore effective strategies to address how these issues intersect. 

Outcomes:

• Participants understand how concentrated power plays out via Big Tech and an analysis of how tech is accelerating/intensifying racial capitalism.

• Participants can do a power analysis of their particular issue/campaign focus.

• Participants develop deeper relationships with other strategists in the ecosystem.
