| Synopsis: |
Through multiple narratives reflecting the complexity of participatory action research partnerships for social justice, this book shows dialogic spaces being co-constructed that intentionally support community literacies and rhetorical practices for inquiry and change. It tells the story of a unique collaboration between a group of community members and organizers and university faculty and students who together transformed a ubiquitous urban corner store into a cornerstone of the community. Embodying the momentum of these practices and these spaces, it captures the group's active work on the ground and, on another level, how transformation occurred in the dialogic spaces of the research team as it learned to embrace distributed expertise and multiple identities. The book's authentic reflection of the unique benefits and challenges of this collaboration opens the way for other researchers, activists, and educators to learn from these experiences. To this end, it employs conversational tone and pedagogy and juxtaposes multiple voices, genres, and styles. This approach reflects the dialogical nature of the collaboration itself, prioritizing inclusivity and the creative potential to speak across differences. |
