Disobedience Across Borders: Lessons of Hope from Resistance Movements

With Profs Summer Forester (POSC), Meredith McCoy (AMST), and Xianen Jin (University of Exeter)

What can different  resistance movements teach us about hope and resiliency? In this conversation, we bring together lessons from Jordan, Ghana, Rwanda, China, the U.K., and the U.S. to reflect and contemplate on possibilities for hope through social movements and collective action.
