  • “Creative Activism Research, Pedagogy and Practice is a collection of writings that is international in scope. It represents multiple voices, various cultures, and thought- provoking visions for the future. [...] There is something for everyone interested in the fusion of activism and creativity. Themes range from philosophy and theory around the idea of creative activism to in-depth research on topics such as pedagogy and ethnography. Theater, dance journalism, puppetry, somatics, and trauma are included themes. In a global environment where equity and social justice are gaining strength, this anthology offers hope and inspiration for the future of the planet through the arts, challenging conventions and offering diverse manifestations of creative options. As a teacher of choreography influenced by social activism, I am inspired to share this work with my students as we engage in dance making through various lenses.”
