The book demonstrates how creative justice principles can transform organizational cultures, challenge traditional hierarchies, and foster environments where creativity and justice intersect.
What do forests teach us about collective action? How do we decompose toxic systems of dominance and oppression as we nurture healing ecosystems of communal power, joy, and liberation? This short-form book poses and explores these questions from the perspective of arts leaders locally, nationally, and internationally. An exploration through three case studies of collective action for creative justice in a US nonprofit context gleans lessons for collective action on micro, meso, and macro levels.
Shaping Creative Justice Ecosystems deepens understanding of why and how collective action is necessary in the arts and culture sector, providing practical examples to inform sector-wide change toward equity and creative justice.
