The book explores co-authored dynamics of collective knowledge production in feminist and queer geographies. It examines how to use co-authorship as a generative feminist practice of care, endurance, and institutional transformation in support of feminism’s next generation of intellectual communities. This book reveals the auto-biographical back-stories and emotional registers of geographical knowledge production through the co-written chapter intimacies of letters, poetry, interviews, and conversations. In doing so, it demonstrates the care-full and hope-full power of collaborations, mentorships, solidarities, and friendships to not only sustain lives and careers but also to enable social change. It confronts neoliberal reification of individual scholarship as the celebrated metric of academic productivity and presents co-authorship as a practice and politics of generating hope through the dynamics of collective care that its collaborations, mentorships, solidarities, and friendships manifest and sustain. This is an interdisciplinary book at the interstices of Geography, Anthropology, Cultural Studies, Education, Sociology, Women’s and Gender Studies, and LGBTQ+ Studies. Its intended audiences are scholars of pedagogy, feminist and queer theory, and sexual and gender minority life. It targets upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, writers, and educators.
