This “Power and Strategy” course seems interesting!

Does anyone know where I can find it?

Anyone, it's good that they taught them people like W.E.B. DuBois and the Combahee River Collective's own texts.

Definitely give the article a read-through or at least a skim-through.

"Solidarity power was also used to do base-building work among formerly enslaved people, free Black people, Quakers, and other allies. Numerous organizations were founded in different countries in the late 1700s and early 1800s, such as the Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade, formed in London in 1787, and the Anti-Man-Hunting League, a secret society formed in 1854 by about five hundred Black and white men in Boston to prevent Black people from being kidnapped and enslaved."

Never heard of these organizations.

Quite intereseting...
