Description

Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation by Eli Clare is a groundbreaking work that has permanently changed the landscape of disability politics and queer liberation. This revelatory writing weaves together memoir, history, and political thinking to explore the complexities of home and identity. Clare's essays examine the intersections of queerness and disability, environmental destruction, capitalism, sexuality, institutional violence, gender, and the body politic, revealing a call for social justice movements that are truly accessible to everyone. With heart and conviction, Exile and Pride pries open a window onto a world where our whole selves can be realized, loved, and embraced. This book offers an intersectional framework for understanding how we live with the daily hydraulics of oppression, power, and resistance, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand and challenge these systems.
