Revolutionology (REBELLIONS & SOCIAL CHANGE) with Jack Goldstone

Revolutionology (REBELLIONS & SOCIAL CHANGE) with Jack Goldstone

Storming the Bastille. Facing off with tanks. Canceling a streaming subscription.

We’re talking protests, boycotts, insurrections, and demonstrations. Scholar, professor, and actual real life Revolutionologist Dr. Jack Goldstone lays out the whys – and the hows. What revolts have been the gold standard? How has social media impacted social change? What happens when you install the wrong new leader? Does non-violent protest work? And how does one go about orchestrating big social change? Also: defining facism, antifacism, anti-antifacism, and dusting off your guitar.

Donations went to City of Hope in honor of Rita Saleman and to the Hand of Salvation Initiative in Gaza
