        year-long project called Ear to the Ground, in which they
        interviewed more than 150 social justice organizers in 30
        communities across the country and asked them to reflect on the
        nature of this moment in history, their assessment of social
        justice forces, and what should be the response of  “the
        movement” to the unique challenges and opportunities of our
        time.<br>
