Sabrina Joy Stevens

Sabrina Joy Stevens is a recovering ideologue, still-dedicated storyteller, strategist, and trainer serving causes, campaigns, and companies committed to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. She has dedicated her whole life to human and civil rights, and has been heartbroken by how she and many others in these fields have unwittingly helped to undermine these rights and destabilize our societies in the process. As a former leftist with 20+ years of experience with political organizing and advocacy, she has seen the good, the bad, and the VERY ugly of movement-building. Her Substack, Leaving Groupthink, Inc. (where a version of this article first appeared), is part real-time memoir, part public conversation, and part strategy session. She envisions it as a project dedicated to reclaiming our good sense and society from the ugly, namely the demoralizing industry she’s nicknamed Groupthink, Inc.
