The Edge of Each Other's Battles Project brings 
together social justice academics and 
community-based projects to work toward social 
change. The Edge Project produces community 
events, organizes sessions at academic 
conferences, and facilitates interdisciplinary, 
site-specific, collaboratively designed seminars, 
conferences,  and working groups on themes 
related to community history, culture, and 
politics. It provides opportunities for scholars 
to learn from and with other community members. 
The Edge Project is inspired by 
poet-educator-activist Audre Lorde's vision of 
cross-community alliance building and organizing 
for social justice. The Edge of Each Other's 
Battles Project operates under the fiscal 
sponsorship of the Agape Foundation - Fund for Nonviolent Social Change.
