Creative resistance : the social justice practices of Monirah, Halleh, and Diala

Includes bibliographical references and index.

How can hope flourish from the devastation of war, oppression, and forced migration? For the people featured in this book, this is not a philosophical question - it is a lived reality. Drawn from first-hand experience of violent conflict and displacement, the stories in this book belong to three extraordinary individuals who found a path to hope through action in the face of violence. Ideal reading for academics, artists, and activists who are working around issues of social justice, Creative Resistance highlights the extraordinary actions of ordinary people in dark times.
