Summary note
Friendship as Social Justice Activism brings together academics and activists to have essential conversations about friendship, love and desire as kinetics for social justice movements. The contributors freatured here come from across the globe and are all involved in diverse movements, including LGBTQ rights, intimate-partner violence, addiction recovery, housing, migrant, labour and environmental activism. Each essay narrates how living and organizing within friendship circles offers new ways of dreaming and struggling for social justice. Recent scholarship in different disciplinary fields as well as activist literature have brought attention to the political possibilities within friendship. The essays, memoirs, poems and artwork in Friendship as Social Justice Activism address these political possibilities within the context of gender, sexuality and economic justice movements--back cover.
