Listen! - Scott Neigh

Scott Neigh expands our understanding of "listening" as not an individual, passive act but as inherently fundamental to constructing a socially just world. He walks us through his learning as a frontline activist, journalist and host of Talking Radical Radio and shares what he's learned from decades of conversing with other activists and scholars. What does it mean to find oneself centred in a world in turmoil, as news of genocide, climate change and police violence increases to quell social movements? Neigh reflects deeply on the role of listening from the moment of injustice to how we respond as individuals, through to the formation of collective social movements — what these movements are, how they work, what they do in the world, the knowledge generated in and by them and the importance of listening to and within them. By listening effectively, we explicitly centre sensory pathways to understanding and may derive greater strategies for our collective liberation as embodied and situated knowers.
