University of Illinois Press Decolonial Feminist Genealogies and Futures (Dissident Feminisms)

New strategies for resistance and opposing colonialism From the COVID-19 pandemic to the war in Gaza, recent events have demonstrated the implacability of settler colonialism and its racist underpinnings. Annie Isabel Fukushima and K. Melchor Quick Hall edit a visionary collection focused on radical struggles against these forces. The editors organize the essays in four thematic sections: subversive labor; spatialities and temporalities; resistance; and genealogies and feminist futures. Inspired by outside catalysts like sharing circles and poetry, the contributors challenge the boundaries of time and space that we imagine as constraints on labor and resistance. Their methodological approaches include participation observation, pláticas, critical participatory action research, spatial analysis, interviews, testimonio, grounded theory, and historical analysis. Interdisciplinary and diverse, Decolonial Feminist Genealogies and Futures draws on a unique history of thought and action to map a new generation of practices. Contributors: Esther O.
