Description
This new edition of The Art of Protest by T. V. Reed offers 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 twenty-first century.
Reed focuses on the artistic activities of these movements to frame progressive social change and its cultural legacies.

Lisa Lowe praises the book for demonstrating how cultural expressions fuelled social movements, from freedom songs to political theatre and feminist poetry. George Lipsitz highlights it as both a great introduction to social movement history and a nuanced look at the complex roles of art within activism.
