Description

"In this poignant and imperative volume, Ethel Tungohan explores how deeply and distinctly migrant worker communities care for themselves and one another. In so doing, they demonstrate radical resistance and critical hope." --Ms. Magazine

"In this poignant and imperative volume, Ethel Tungohan explores how deeply and distinctly migrant worker communities care for themselves and one another. In so doing, they demonstrate radical resistance and critical hope." --Ms. Magazine

“Ethel Tungohan argues that social movement organizations succeed because their members care not only about the issues but also about each other. Drawing upon extensive global observation, she details how domestic workers cultivate critical hope and press for greater justice.” --Joan C. Tronto, author of Who Cares? How to Reshape a Democratic Politics

“A fascinating read. The way the author tells the stories, braiding histories and contemporary resonances together, creates an imaginative and successful narrative of care activism in Canada and transnationally. Tungohan underscores that, regardless of the vision and underlying motives of migrant care worker movements, they are invested in caring for one another. Her book shows us that perhaps activism isn’t at all separate from caring and that perhaps radical care can and should be a part of radical movement building.”--Valerie Francisco-Menchavez, author of The Labor of Care: Filipina Migrants and Transnational Families in the Digital Age

Ethel Tungohan is an assistant professor of politics and social science at York University.
