The Rest is Political: radical histories of repose
Happy to announce that Radical Stillness: Performances of Rest and Sleep as Public Resistance has just been published in the lateste issue of The Radical History Review.
The amazing Lauren Michelle Levesque, associate professor in the School of Leadership Ecology and Equity at Saint Paul University, invited Josh Clendenin and I to participate in a series of conversations on the topic of Rest as Resistance.
And though I may be credited as one of the authors of the article, all I did was particpate in some of the most interesting convesations I have ever had with two of the most incredible people I have ever met, Lauren did ALL the heavy lifting to get the article to print.
Thank you Lauren and Josh!
