Author: Hilary Moore
Hilary Moore grew up working poor in the Sierra Nevada foothills and Sacramento Valley. She holds a deep commitment to liberation and firmly believes that transformation is a political necessity and totally possible. She co-founded the San Francisco Bay Area chapter of Rising Tide, along with the Mobilization for Climate Justice West, an alliance of organizations that prioritized the leadership of community-based campaigns at the frontline of challenging corporate power and working for resilience and self-determination. Hilary co-authored Organizing Cools the Planet: Tools and Reflections to Navigate the Climate Crisis, a booklet that offers strategies for long-term, directly democratic movement- and leadership-building. She finished a graduate degree in Social Ecology through Prescott College and currently teaches in the ISE’s annual intensives. Hilary facilitates anti-racist popular education with Catalyst Project, and serves as co-coordinator. She spends her time studying somatics, running long distances, writing about big things, and swooning over every dog she meets.
