Undoing the silence : six tools for social change writing

Summary: "This is a book for citizen activists, scholars and professionals who want to use writing for social change. Drawn from many traditions and piloted in classes and workshops over forty years, these tools build self-confidence and skill in writing for real-world audiences. They are grounded in inspiring stories of people at all levels of education undoing their reluctance to write and producing letters, memos, op-ed articles, and proposals with the power to shift attitudes, change policies, and restore sanity to a world gone mad." (from http://www.undoingsilence.org/book.html) The six tools are 'freewriting', the writing 'process', 'thinking', 'audience', 'feedback' and 'word-power'.
