Design Justice: Community-Led Practices to Build the Worlds We Need

By Sasha Costanza-Chock, associate professor of civic media

MIT Press · 2020

"Design justice" is an approach to design that is led by marginalized communities and that aims to challenge, rather than reproduce, structural inequalities. This book documents a multitude of real-world community-led design practices and connects design to larger struggles for collective liberation and ecological survival.
