Is creative activism innovative? I would say yes and no at the same time. Not every new idea will be considered innovative since sometimes it is too close to cliches or just have not enough new elements in it. Sometimes you can have the opposite namely too many new elements and then people will not consider it as innovative but will probably see you / me as a weirdo.
Old ideas can be considered as innovative. Maybe not the idea itself but I believe that you should look to the context of the action including the location and even who you want to reach with your action. Spreading a poster in a town where no one ever did it, is that creative activism? I would say yes, for me it’s not about inventing constantly ideas no one ever thought of but more about putting ideas in the right context and by that make them innovative.
