This collection immerses scholars of communication and related
disciplines in narratives of and conversations about
social-justice-focused activism. Through autoethnographic essays,
Mindful Activism chronicles the authors' experiences as activist
academics challenging and seeking to remedy injustices on campus
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. Building upon
communication activism research and following a liberation-based
transformative learning model, the book shows both activism in
action and deep reflection on that activism. The authors
re-experience activist experiences, draw out lessons, and invite
readers to apply those to their own social justice endeavors.
Mindful Activism also demonstrates how mindfulness supports
activists in deepening their awareness and understanding of
themselves, others, and social systems. This orientation increases
the likelihood that activists will remain grounded enough to
respond to injustice mindfully/effectively. The book will enrich
courses on activism, social justice, dialogue, narrative inquiry,
qualitative methods, autoethnography, and general graduate studies,
and will resonate with scholars committed to building a more
equitable and just world.
