The original essays in this collection center three themes to unbind and enable different feminist futures: discomfort as a site where differences generate both productive and immobilizing frictions, gendered and racialized bodies as sites of political struggle, and the embodied work of building the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on diverse theoretical backgrounds and a range of field sites, contributors consider how race, gender, citizenship, and class often determine who feels comfort and who is tasked with producing it. They work through bodies as terrains of struggle that make claims to space and enact political change, and they ask how these politics prefigure the futures that we fear or desire. The book also champions feminist geography as practice, through interviews with feminist scholars and interludes in which feminist collectives speak to their experience inhabiting and transforming academic spaces. \u003ci\u003eFeminist Geography Unbound\u003c\/i\u003e is grounded in a feminist geography that has long forced the discipline to grapple with the production of difference, the unequal politics of knowledge production, and gender's constitutive role in shaping social life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFeminist Geography Unbound\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-read for students and scholars interested in the diversity of feminist geographic thought, action, and activism. This is an exceptionally edited collection of leading scholars’ research and reflections on gender, race, sexuality, identity, vulnerability, and power relations. I highly recommend this book for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses engaging with feminist geographic scholarship and methods.\" — Jennifer L.
