"A timely and timeless call to live resistance every day"

In an era in which "resistance" has become tokenized, Indigenous author Kaitlin Curtice reclaims it as a basic human calling. We each have a role to play in the world right where we are, and our everyday acts of resistance hold us all together.

"In a moment in which 'resistance' is a hashtag and 'wholeness' is an industry, Living Resistance is a lifeline reconnecting us with our human calling. Curtice beautifully honors the ancient and eternal promise of liberation as not only our sacred birthright but our marching orders."
--Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Untamed; founder of Together Rising

"Curtice fiercely yet gently calls us home to care about our souls and our bodies, about each other and Mother Earth. It's a timely and timeless call to live resistance every day as we build the world we want, together."
--Rev. Dr. Jacqui J. Lewis, senior minister, Middle Church; author of Fierce Love

"Living Resistance forges a path to a more whole now and a more whole tomorrow."
--Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, author of On Repentance and Repair: Making Amends in an Unapologetic World

"Curtice lays out a compassionate call to action for all of us to return to the source, to the root, to that which is love. Curtice writes poetically and sets out a clear and beautiful path that feels accessible to all. This book is a bold, reimagined way for us to stand courageously in our truth."
--Jo?l Leon, poet, author, storyteller

"For those who have been hearing the call for a more equitable, compassionate, and humane world, Living Resistance is the road map we have been looking for. It reminds us of the fire we hold in our bellies and the spark we carry in our souls. I am so grateful that this book exists; it's a must-read for all."
--Asha Frost, Indigenous Medicine Woman; bestselling author of You Are the Medicine
