Practicing Futures A Civic Imagination Action Handbook

"Motivating communities to imagine a just future is a powerful act of building solidarity. And yet, it is hard work to create intentional spaces for collaborative play and visioning, to bring people together to engage in deep listening and ideation on the path to shaping a better world. In Practicing Futures: A Civic Imagination Action Handbook, authors Sangita Shresthova and Gabriel Peters-Lazaro beautifully bring to life the hard work involved in inspiring collective civic imagination, taking us along on journeys of dreaming and discovery, letting us in on the 'why' and 'how to' details of fueling social change through the radical process of finding creative communion with our fellow humans." -Caty Borum Chattoo, Executive Director of the Center for Media & Social Impact; Author of Story Movements: How Documentaries Empower People and Inspire Social Change, and Co-author of A Comedian and an Activist Walk Into a Bar: The Serious Role of Comedy in Social Justice
