I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

With everything going on in the world right now, there’s a lot of thoughts and energy swirling around in my brain. Channeling that energy into making art, into doing SOMETHING helps me clear out the gunk and feel a little lighter.

When the darkness closes in, look towards the light. ✨

It’s so easy to get lost in the shadows and forget that goodness will always exist somewhere out there. Focus on hope, focus on joy, focus on community. That’s how we make it through.
