In the Camp of Angels of Freedom comes at its subject from three angles: paintings including portraits of eleven individuals whose work helped Goldbard understand and become herself; a short memoir about each person, from James Baldwin to Paulo Freire to Alice Neel to Jane Jacobs; and essays that look at the harm that's been done by privileging credential expertise and devaluing lived knowledge.
