The blend of public research, activist approaches, methodological meditations, and experimental epistemologies makes this a perfect introductory book for graduate students. Black, Indigenous, decolonial, and feminist interventions are well represented, timely, and substantive. The knowledge-making and -sharing is fresh, compassionate, humane, and radical.
