This book brings the experiences of more than 100 activists from around the world, what they fear what they hope for, their exhaustion, grief and pleasure, pain and loss and wicked black humour, spirituality, funding crunches, backbiting and burnout. Self-worth, desire, selfishness, and selflessness. The book uncovers the simple and complex strategies that activists use to stay well and safe and concludes with a call for a revolution within activism that will ensure that we can sustain ourselves and our movements.
