Sofie Karasek

Hi! My name is Sofie, and I’m a strategist, organizer, and storyteller.

I develop and deliver powerful messages and narratives that call people to action and build transformational political movements. A visionary optimist, I’m grounded in grassroots storytelling for compelling content in writing, in person, and through video. Leading organizations I’ve consulted for include Showing Up for Racial Justice, NRDC, Young Invincibles, the Carolina Federation, and the Green New Deal Network.

From door-to-door fundraising as a teen and co-founding End Rape on Campus (passing Yes Means Yes legislation and priming the public for #MeToo) to leading press work at Sunrise Movement, I’ve done high-profile speaking, been published by NYTimes, Washington Post, The Guardian, and Teen Vogue, started a viral Twitter campaign, and created talking points, videos, strategies, and narratives for change.

Most recently, in addition to finishing a masters in Nordic Urban Planning, I worked as canvassing director and on the campaign leadership team for the Red-Green Alliance, a political party, during the Copenhagen municipal election. We built the party’s first-ever doorknocking program at scale, remained the largest party in the city, and won the most votes in our party’s history.

If grassroots organizing combined with strategic messaging will make a difference for your work, let’s be in touch.
