Practicing Liberation Report

In 2024, RoadMap released its Practicing Liberation Report. Including tools, analysis, and connective wisdom fueled by interviews, surveys, case studies, and deep thinking by RoadMap members, this report—written by RoadMap network consultants Brigette Rouson and Clay Smith—is an assessment of the current moment and how to most powerfully support clients in moving society towards equity and liberation. 

The report represents RoadMap’s vision for a thriving consultant ecosystem, as well as a broader invitation to movement builders to be vulnerable, lean on one another, and engage in deeper field-wide conversations. The report is anchored in the belief that our liberation depends on how we collectivize, decolonize, build power, and share resources—both in more intimate spaces for camaraderie, skill development, mentorship, and co-creation, as well in broader spaces across movements.
