My name is Aaron Schutz, and I am a professor at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee. Feel free to contact me at schutz@uwm.edu.

I have worked for a couple of decades with local community organizing groups, but am an academic, not someone who is an expert organizer in terms of practice.

I have published a few books on or related to community organizing, including

Empowerment: A Primer (2020)

People Power: The Alinsky Commmunity Organizing Tradition, with Mike Miller (2015)

Collective Action for Social Change: An Introduction to Community Organizing, with Marie Sandy (2011)

I plan to revise the last book and include a comparison with the emerging civil resistance tradition.
