Social Movements as Knowledge Makers
movements seen as sites for collective learning
integrating theory and practice: ”cognitive praxis”
fostering hybrid forms of agency, or imagination
places where ”movement intellectuals” are formed
...and where culture and politics can sometimes meet

We need to change our waysAnd how we spend our days,Stop taking so much from the earthAnd learn what life is really worth. We've taken more than we shouldAnd we've done less than we could,We've taken chances with our fateOh, let us hope it's not too late. We need to change our mindsBefore the world unwinds,Learn of the patterns and the flows,From where life comes and where it goes.
We Need to Change Our WaysPlease sing along!
We need to change our schoolsAnd rearrange our tools,Teach our children how to shareAnd teach each other how to care.
We need to change our waysAnd how we spend our days,Stop taking so much from the earthAnd learn what life is really worth.
