This morning at the Conference, during the "How We Won" segment, Ohio General Election Director Jeremy Bird welcomed the group, National Field Director Jon Carson provided the historical context for the organizing victory of the Campaign, and Pennsylvania Deputy Field Director Nicole Price harped on one of the most integral parts of the plan: sharing your story. This element will be fundamental to the organizing principles we use going forward.
Nicole called organizer Ashley out of the crowd, whose personal story has become a kind of legend on the campaign--in no small part since Barack referred to it in his "A More Perfect Union" speech. Ashley shared her story, which is featured in the video below, about what community organizing means.
Currently, state organizers and volunteer leaders are meeting in breakout panels again. Last time was about what we accomplished; this time is about what we can do better.
