Pleasure Activism by Adrienne Maree Brown
How do we make social justice the most pleasurable human experience? How can we awaken within ourselves desires that make it impossible to settle for anything less than a fulfilling life?

Drawing on the black feminist tradition the contributors to this volume take up the challenge to rethink the ground rules of activism.adrienne maree brown is the author of Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Transforming Worlds, Pleasure Activism: The Politics of Feeling Good, Octavia's Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, cohost of How to Survive the End of the World and Octavia's Parables, and creator of the Emergent Strategy Ideation Institute.
