ABSTRACT
In order to strengthen academic ecojustice activism, we share tales of challenge and success from a collaborative auto-ethnographic project located in three contexts across Australia. We describe and theorise how it is possible to knead critical events to deconstruct and then reconstruct them for the purpose of activism. Our process is one of collectively scaffolding and layering our understandings of these events, and then crafting and sharing fictionalised stories to illustrate our methods and findings. The purpose of our practice is to stay open to different perspectives and to hold self and others to account to caring, loving ways of being, which we identify as an antidote to ecological harm and social injustice. We present this as a productive methodology which can lead to action and powerful scholarship, enlivening ecojustice activism.
