Reparative Media

“Aymar Jèan Escoffery is one of the most important thinkers and creators of our time. This beautifully written book is the roadmap we need to repair from the deep divisions the internet has created among us.”
—Safiya Umoja Noble, author of Algorithms of Oppression

“Reparative Media harvests fruits of Aymar’s work in the academy and beyond, asking us to think with justice practices in mind as we move to create the communications infrastructure of our collective dreams!”
—Moya Bailey, author of #HashtagActivism

“An invaluable guide for doing research, telling stories, and creating reparative platforms and practices. Read this book to see how we can learn from our mistakes—rather than embed them within our algorithms.”
—Wendy Hui Kyong Chun, author of Discriminating Data

“Escoffery’s generous book radically rethinks the normative stakes of community media from the margins.”
—Paula Chakravartty, James Weldon Johnson Professor of Media Studies, NYU
