Produktbeschreibung

Expanding the Critical Animal Studies Imagination: Essays in Solidarity and Total Liberation pushes critical animal studies forward and outward by making new connections to movements and ideas that have been little engaged with in publication to the present. This book challenges critical animal studies adherents to expand their efforts of solidarity, mutual aid, and activism. Contributors to this volume extend invitations to those not familiar with critical animal studies to welcome them in with gestures of solidarity towards total liberation. Expanding the Critical Animal Studies Imagination does not shy away from controversial topics but critically engages with them using care and tact. This is not controversy for the sake of being provocative, but not being afraid to target root causes of oppression. This book works toward coalition building to resist the current violence and build peaceful communities.

Rezensionen

It is rare, truly, that one finds a book that delivers on its radical and iconoclastic promise. This book does precisely that. Delinking critical animal studies from a presumed narrowness, Expanding the Critical Animal Studies Imagination is deeply intersectional, deeply committed, and deeply cutting edge-in a rigorous, robust, and genuine way. This collection goes there; it is not afraid, at all, to be Black, trans, feminist, and anarchistic in ways that we strongly need. In short, read this. Now. Marquis Bey Author of Black Trans Feminism
