Omschrijving
This book 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.
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
I am always seeking out unruly ideas and undisciplined perspectives that will unsettle the ways that we have been conditioned to think about the world we live in, and that invite us to imagine and act to realize the worlds we might co-create. This powerful collection of writings on the future of Critical Animal Studies is an exemplar of such a vision and has challenged me to expand, deepen, and sharpen my thinking about how we can and must transform our freedom dreams into lived experience. David Naguib Pellow University of California Santa Barbara, author of Total Liberation and What is Critical Environmental Justice?
A wake-up call for critical animal studies that invites us to abandon respectability politics. These imaginative essays link liberatory thought and social justice action in ways that will astound, inspire, and anger you in turn. Best read with a mind open to anarchism.
