Abstract

I explore the social movement learning operating within one site of critical public pedagogy and, specifically, examine how the anti-consumption activist group Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping fosters participatory cultural production, enacts a poetic community politics, and encourages transitional spaces of learning through a pedagogy-of-the-unknown.
