This Pivot book provides a wide-ranging and diverse commentary on
issues of legibility (and illegibility) around poetry, antifascist
pacifist activism, environmentalism and the language of protest. A
timely meditation from poet John Kinsella, the book focuses on
participation in protest, demonstration and intervention on behalf
of human rights activism, and writing and acting peacefully but
persistently against tyranny. The book also examines how we make
records and what we do with them, how we might use poetry to act or
enact and/or to discuss such necessities and events. A book about
community, human and animal rights and the way poetry can be used
as a peaceful and decisive means of intervention in moment of
public social and environmental crisis. Ultimately, it is a poetics
against fascism with a focus on the well-being of the biosphere and
all it contains.
