Short description:
This is a fascinating study of the challenges faced by cultural institutions in collecting and curating the memory of protest. Written in a clear and accessible manner which will appeal to a wide readership, it offers a compelling argument about the civic value of giving protest an afterlife. Highly recommended.
- Ann Rigney, Utrecht University, The NetherlandsThis short book enlivens memory as something that can spark protest and propel the commemoration, re-use and attempted management of its ?afterlives? by various players. Case studies of the Women?s March and London?s environmental river activisms offer rich models for readers seeking to understand the prefigurative political possibilities of activist collaborations with cultural institutions and for cultural workers alike. A terrific read.
- Kylie Message, Australian National University, Australia

Directly focused on the role of museum and archive practitioners in protest memory curation, it makes a compelling contribution to our understanding of how social movements and activist experiences are publicly remembered and activated for social and environmental justice.
