Matt, Thomas, and Representative Welch pull back the curtain on what coalition building actually looks like in practice - the importance of coalitions in organizing work, how to deal with tensions and disagreements in coalitions, and how to think about coalition building around climate change, specifically. Thomas shares their story organizing in support of the #nodapl movement, how that work led to his involvement with the International Indigenous Youth Council, and the lessons he gleaned about coalition building from that experience. Rep. Welch shares his personal story and how it informs his approach to public life, what it's like to build coalitions with politicians and legislators, and his advice for listeners who want to build relationships with their local politicians. Thomas explores coalitions as a source of learning and intergenerational knowledge for organizers as well as resource allocation. Rep. Welch shares an example of how he helped shepherd immigration legislation to become law through coalition building across the state in partnership with community groups. The group wraps up by exploring coalition building around climate change.
