Our aquatic cousins are queer, fierce, protective of each other, complex, shaped by conflict, and struggling to survive the extractive and militarized conditions our species has imposed on the ocean. Gumbs employs a brilliant mix of poetic sensibility and naturalist observation to show what they might teach us, producing not a specific agenda but an unfolding space for wondering and questioning. From the relationship between the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale and Gumbs's Shinnecock and enslaved ancestors to the ways echolocation changes our understandings of \"vision\" and visionary action, this is a masterful use of metaphor and natural models in the service of social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexis Pauline Gumbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e AK Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/17\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Emergent Strategy #2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849353977","brand":"Ripon Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44151609917485,"sku":"9781849353977","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/0501\/1245\/files\/img_b5f0bd9b-c8af-440a-866d-d32b472d72e8.jpg?v=1757355862","url":"https:\/\/riponbookstore.com\/products\/undrowned-black-feminist-lessons-from-marine-mammals-9781849353977","provider":"Ripon Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
