Synopsis

This volume is a collective offering that extends bell hooks' vision of homeplace as a site of resistance, refuge, and liberatory worldmaking. This volume emerges from a deep commitment to anti-colonial, anti-racist, and matriarchal practices rooted in care, ethical relationality, and community. As we troubled the waters of theorizing home amidst grief, occupation, displacement, and longing, we honored what it means to write in times of uncertainty-- when home is not always safe, and when it must be carried, remembered, or reimagined. This collection centres the voices of Black and Indigenous women, 2Spirit, trans, queer, non-binary, and gender expansive peoples, offering pathways for rethinking kinship, safety, and belonging. Conceived as an intellectual and spiritual gathering, the volume holds space for mourning and hope, interruption and renewal. We invite readers to reflect, imagine, and find comfort in the care extended within these pages.
