About this ebook
Reimagine activism with depth, dialogue, and diversity. This collection of essays broadens the vision of activism to include the intersection of personal experience and the social and political world, encouraging dialogue across diverse viewpoints and urging psychology to become a social-change agent.
David Bedrick deconstructs racism by looking at white denial and divergent views of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and he deconstructs sexism by critiquing the diet industry and the way women feel about their bodies. He brings this same psychological eye to understanding societal problems, national celebrities, and popular psychology's failure to create sustainable change. If you are interested in personal growth, or are a therapist, psychologist, activist, teacher, or student, this is for you. Prepare to have your critical thinking provoked, your feelings engaged, and your understanding of social change expanded.
