A second edition of the classic introduction to arts in social movements, fully updated and now including Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, and new digital and social media forms of cultural resistanceThe Art of Protest, first published in 2006, was hailed as an essential introduction to progressive social movements in the United States and praised for its fluid writing style and wellinformed and insightful contribution (Choice Magazine). Now thoroughly revised and updated, this new edition of T. V. Reeds acclaimed work offers engaging accounts of ten key progressive movements in postwar America, from the African American struggle for civil rights beginning in the 1950s to Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter in the twentyfirst century.Reed focuses on the artistic activities of these movements as a lively way to frame progressive social change and its cultural legacies: civil rights freedom songs, the street drama of the Black Panthers, revolutionary murals of the Chicano movement, poetry in womens movements, the American Indian Movements use of film and video, antiapartheid rock music, ACT UPs visual art, digital arts in #Occupy, Black Lives Matter rap videos, and more.Through the kaleidoscopic lens of artistic expression, Reed reveals how activism profoundly shapes popular cultural forms. For students and scholars of social change and those seeking to counter reactionary efforts to turn back the clock on social equality and justice, the new edition of The Art of Protest will be both informative and inspiring.
