Queering Anarchism: Addressing and Undressing Power and Desire by J. Rogue, Deric Shannon, C.B. Daring, Abbey Volcano

3.0

it’s difficult to rate/review anthologies bc of the nature of them. but this is pretty hit or miss — some essays I really enjoyed and made me think, while others made me deeply uncomfortable (for example, the “not-straight heterosexual cisgender woman” using the t-slur...). Some of the pieces seemed like repetition of things that’re very basic to anarcha-queer politics, while some present underrepresented ideas that I loved. I really liked the discussions of BDSM & kink as says to view and play with larger power dynamics, and I definitely liked the essay including disability as well. however, I’m not sure if I’ll ever be comfortable with the notion of “queering heterosexuality,” and i think that for now at least, cishets need to learn to stay in their place when it comes to queer politics.
