Engaging Creative Tensions in Activist + Social Movement Spaces

Together with Alfonso Montuori, this essay “Engaging Creative Tensions in Activist and Social Movement Spaces” appears in the collection Creative Activism: Research, Pedagogy and Practice, edited by Elspeth Tilley and published in May 2022 by Cambridge Scholars Publishing.
