Lehigh Valley Vanguard Collections Volume EIGHT

Every act we take up is political. When we decide whether we'd like to do something or say "hell with it, I'm not doing it," we occupy a radical chasm of biopower. The authors in this volume offer reflections on the minutiae of the everyday. Those moments when we can choose to go forth or walk out. Poets, especially, subvert the automatic when they use their habit of attention. The auto-life is what causes poor policies to proliferate. Only acts of questioning, defecting, and ultimately, dissent will bring us to a place where we are actively seeking justice for all.
