In the 1990's, Srdja Popovic built a youth movement in Serbia that ended up toppling Slobodan Milošević, a brutal dictator, without firing a single shot. In this episode, we dive into Srdja's personal story and discuss how to scale a movement from a handful to millions, how to overcome a regime that holds all the power and weapons, why peaceful revolutions are more successful than violent ones, how street movements are like startups, and how protest movements are adapting to the Coronavirus and new government emergency laws and surveillance done in the name of public health.
