Sacred Resistance

Sacred Resistance attends to the frontlines of new expressions of spiritually grounded environmental activism. Through five powerful case studies written by embedded activist-scholars, this book explores religious eco-activism and reveals myriad ways that ecological well-being is bound up with other struggles against systemic oppression. From Indigenous communities to Quakers, Roman Catholic women religious to Yogis, Sacred Resistance centers women's leadership and interreligious solidarity in critical reflections on the urgent environmental conflicts of our times.
