For me, Coalition Literature isn't just a truly superb literary history—it’s also a roadmap for how our narratives can build solidarity and spark change and resistance today.

Also don’t miss @franciscondine's brilliant new book #CoalitionLiterature. At a time when we desperately need bold new coalitions, this book couldn't be more timely, showing how mid-20th c writers used experimental, collaborative styles to fight exclusion & imagine new futures.

Really grateful for the opportunity to think through Lawrence's wonderfully provocative essay, 'Mobilizing Lit.' All the responses add layers, insights, & shades to this productive polemic — expertly curated by @dan_sinykin and @franciscondine Check it out! @AtPost45 @post45
What role do social movements play in recent literary history? Francisco Robles and I gathered some brilliant scholars to debate Jeffrey Lawrence's essay, "Mobilizing Literature," published last fall.
