Recenzje

"This is an important book for communicating both a vision of hands-on activist pedagogy and for understanding what it feels like to try to live up to the demands of collaborative activism both within and outside the university."

-Arthur P. Bochner, National Communication Association Distinguished Scholar and Past President

"This is an excellent text for any scholar who identifies as doing social justice work. Scholars who study identity groups or other groups impacted by social justice work (e.g., LGBTQ+, incarcerated people, refugees, etc.) should indeed read Mindful Activism, as it provides an excellent model for approaching the subject with principles of care, relationality, and the co-construction of knowledge."

-Courtney D. Tabor, University of Oregon, USA
