Radical Praxis is an independent qualitative research lab that studies cultures of resistance and the activist forefront of political change. We are interested in the intersections and inequalities of race, class and gender under late-stage capitalism, and the theorization of these interces as a way to mobilize critique against hegemonic systems of power.

We use theory as a form of world-building; a way to define our parameters of interest and imagine our cosmology of relations. We challenge outdated Eurocentric hierarchies and draw lines of affinity through decolonial, anticolonial and anti imperial scholarship. Theory is the foundation of what we do.

We use feminist research methodologies to write, listen, make and build. This means that each step of the research journey is evaluated through a critical interrogation of the tools we use and the researchers' situated relations to them. We foster ethical approaches, push disciplinary boundaries, subvert and challenge academic norms.

We understand praxis as the process and outcome of putting theory into practice. This can take different forms of activism, writing, art-making and anything in between. Radical praxis centers disruption and remediation as tools for justice and community-building.
