This dynamic collection of conversations includes reflections by Black and Indigenous organizers and educators on the historical and ongoing violence and theft that they have endured and continue to resist.

Both raw and disciplined, the wide-ranging discussions explore issues including spirituality, environmentalism, security, freedom, autonomy, anti-Blackness, and family. The volume is an invitation to dismantle colonial oppressions and a step towards building a future free from the harmful legacies of racism and genocide.

ENGAGE includes contributions from under-platformed writers from diverse political perspectives. It emphasizes the role of non-academic collaborators as stewards of progressive, radical projects to realize better and more just futures.
