The Granny Peace Brigade published Reflections on the Knit-In yesterday evening. In the article, they quote John Emerson’s apt description of their protest as the opposite of violence, and thank Groundswell for the perspective I offered last Tuesday:
The idea of being constructive wasn’t foremost in my consciousness at the time but it was lurking down in the shadows and I thank James David for shining a light.
It’s incredibly inspiring to have an impact beyond publishing each day. Having made a difference as seemingly small as this reminds me of our purpose here - not only about Groundswell, but social design in general.
Why do you care about social design? Have you had similar experiences?
