Deep dives
The Need for Political Humility
Political humility is crucial for those on the left, especially amid feelings of marginalization during elections. Rather than insisting that one specific strategy is the only way forward, it is important to recognize and appreciate the diversity of approaches within leftist movements. This humility fosters collaboration and understanding among various factions, promoting a regrouping of the left while acknowledging that past strategies have often led to defeat. Embracing this concept can help individuals align better with broader movements, enhancing overall effectiveness.
