Beskrivelse
Summary:Skate/worlds brings together writers, educators, and activists who research skateboarding as a prefigurative learning tool. Can skateboarding be therapeutic? Does it align with efforts to queer and decolonise education? And how to parent as a skater? As the ecology of skateboarding expands and diversifies, the sensation of moving sideways gains socio-political and pedagogical relevance. This edited volume chronicles how we both learn to skate and learn from skateboarding – zooming in on topics including gestalt therapy, care work, motherhood, and grassroots advocacy.
