Scholar Activism - Jozi Chaet

A lot of the questions have expressed some interest in the accessibility of academic work and the ways in which it is possible to have activist scholarship be seen as a serious avenue of inquiry within the academy, and my questions express a somewhat similar sentiment --
1. How can we produce work that is viewed as legitimate for both the academy and for the communities in which we work? How can that work be disseminated to a wider audience?
2. Who is activist scholarship ultimately for, and how do we as researchers make sure that we are conducting appropriate work for the 'right' reasons?
