Fragments of activism

"Activists in South Africa have achieved many important victories since the end of apartheid. But there is a growing frustrations and desire to build a new politics that deal with the big question facing today's world. Fragments to activism is a collection of stories, essays, reflections, and images. They are drawn from individual conversations over a period of two years with people building movements and campaigns across South Africa and in several countries across Latin America. People who want to change society for the better. Moving between many themes - from facing hitmen, to occupying buildings to the messiness of political work, to reimaging politics together - Fragments of activism offer broader conversation on forms of alternative thinking to the status quo."--Back cover.
