2018 General Baker BootCamp Application (late)

This is the application for LeftRoots’ 2018 General Baker BootCamp. The BootCamp is the first step to becoming a LeftRoots cadre—a formal member of this project to connect our frontline struggles to national strategy for liberation.

The 2018 BootCamp will be a seven-week series of online political training and discussion sessions designed to help participants learn more about LeftRoots and help the organization learn about the participants. Each session will have assigned readings that have been carefully selected to facilitate these discussions while looking at some of the important questions facing our movements today.

Completing the BootCamp is necessary to become a LeftRoots cadre, but signing up is not a commitment for either the participant or LeftRoots. Instead, it gives both a chance to learn whether the two are a good fit. If, after a participant successfully completes the BootCamp, she and the organization both agree that they are a good fit, it is then that she will join. To successfully complete the BootCamp, participants must attend at least five (5) of the seven (7) sessions.

Here are some key dates in this year’s BootCamp process:

  1. 31 Mar: Deadline to apply to the 2018 General Baker BootCamp.
  2. 6 Apr: Applicants learn whether they are invited to participate in this year’s BootCamp.
