The Movement Strategy Center is founded.

The Movement Strategy Center (MSC) is founded in Oakland, California "with the understanding that grassroots transformative movements intending to change structures and systems must also change the way we think, the way we live, and even who we are. Transformative movements recognize that our issues are interconnected, so our systemic solutions must also be interconnected."

Strongly inspired by the work of Norma Wong, MSC also builds its work around the "60/40 stance," which is a mind-body practice that supports building stronger collective purpose and reshaping structural habits.
