cass_lit's review
I thought these essays would leave me with hope. And they did, but they also left me with so many new things to think about, which I think is pretty cool.

kassiani's review against another edition
Revolutionary practice of love.
justice as an ethic of love
QUOTES:
"So in the midst of despair, I have come to believe that love—the feeling of love, the politics of love, the ethics and ideology and embodiment of love —is the only good option in this time of the apocalypse. (...)
I mean love that is kind but also honest. Love that is courageous and relentless and willing to break the rules and smash the system. Love that cares about people more than ideas, that prizes each and every one of us as essential and indispensable. I mean love that is compassionate and accountable. I mean love that confirms and reaffirms us as complex and fallible yet lovable anyway, love that affirms us as human."
