Social Change and Intersectional Activism cover

Reading texts in relation to feminist, queer, and race theory and Buddhist philosophy, this book argues that an understanding of spirit is critical to explaining the power that social movements have to change hearts, minds, and social structures.

"Social change is not possible without love. This book translates the voices, stories, philosophies and body-mind-emotions of advocates for social love, from Gloria Anzaldua to Che Guevara." - Chela Sandoval, associate professor of Chicana and Chicano Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara, and author of Methodology of the Oppressed

"Social Change and Intersectional Activism testifies to spiritual activism's transformational potential and radical possibilities for the 21st century. Doetsch-Kidder reminds us of the crucial role Spirit plays in progressive social/environmental justice work." - AnaLouise Keating, author of Teaching Transformation: Transcultural Classroom Dialogues
