The #JustAndEquitableNow team reflects on what it means to make, teach, and research the arts when communities are protesting against longstanding injustices and demanding better futures. The project team considers materials by thinkers in a variety of disciplines and subject positions to inform our research-based action. Our aims are to put the theorising we read and write into action through our work together and with community partners. We attend with care to the joys and difficulties that come with attempts to forge new structures for learning, teaching, and creating.
