Gestures of Defiance

I'm an artist, educator and activist particularly interested in learning from tactics, props and gestures used as protests. I use this blog as a platform to archive and communicate examples of what I call 'gestures of defiance'-exciting, urgent and relevant actions that link protest histories and present radical potentials. On this blog I'm simply compiling and reposting examples I find as they happen. Months may go by with out a post but the blog as an archive is still active.

Dancing as a form of resistance

Small towns, inappropriate body contact, rebels teens, love and age gaps, pregnancy, a ban on rock music and dancing, religious communities, challenges to traditional masculinity and DANCING to sort it all out.
