Abstract "We live in uncertain, troubled, inequitable, and unjust times. Threats, such as authoritarianism, oppression, and State-sponsored violence, can feel so overwhelming and daunting that students-and their professors!-may not know where to begin in confronting those threats. Mindful Activism chronicles the authors' experiences as academics challenging and seeking to remedy injustices on campus, in the classroom, and in local and global communities. Those experiences range from engaging in a single activist act to collaborating over many years with oppressed communities and social change groups. This book shows activism in action, offering inviting, compelling narratives that portray what living an activist life-in and outside the academy-requires, means, and does"-- Provided by publisher.
