“Intersectionality of Critical Animal Studies is an unflinching yet
deeply respectful deconstruction of the cruelly constructed
barriers among and between human and non-human animals by
scholar-activist authors; it comes at a crucial time in our history
when benevolence and hope are acutely under siege.”—Dr. Judy K. C.
Bentley, Associate Professor of Disability Studies and Inclusive
Special Education, State University of New York College at
Cortland
“Intersectionality of Critical Animal Studies truly ‘bridges theory
with action and academia with activism’ as 21 scholar-activists
forward the field and fight for social justice. Intersecting
queerness, disability, gender, class, and race, these chapters
challenge the homogenization of animal studies and strengthen the
work of all activists, especially those seeking to liberate humans
and nonhumans from the myriad harmful policies we see today.”—Dr.
Erik Juergensmeyer, Editor, Green Theory & Praxis Journal
“Intersection of Critical Animal Studies is a brilliant collective
of radical activist-scholarly essays that promote intersectional
social justice for total liberation. This book will help all
activists grow and become more effective in working toward justice
for all.”—JR Bobik, Regional Coordinator, Save the Kids
“When first published these essays smashed through the speciesist
horizons that enamored mainstream academic and activist
communities, and in doing so helped create the critical spaces upon
which a truly intersectional politics of total liberation stands
today. Read now, at a time of global crisis and darkening of the
world, their messages still burn brightly and brilliantly, and
carry with them the promise to inspire a new spirit of hope and
solidarity in all who read them.”—Dr. Richard J. White, Reader in
Human Geography, Sheffield Hallam University, United Kingdom;
former Editor-in-Chief for The Journal for Critical Animal Studies
(2009–2012)
“Intersectionality of Critical Animal Studies comes at a time when
the established structures, left unchanged, seek to reassert
themselves. This ground-breaking collection gives both newcomers,
and past enquirers alike, a chance to acquaint, and reacquaint,
themselves with the crucial underpinnings of Critical Animal
Studies and caste a light on the hierarchies of oppression it seeks
to overthrow.”—Carolyn Drew, Senior Lecturer, University of
Canberra College
“Intersectionality of Critical Animal Studies is a powerful text
that must be used in all animal law, intersectionality, social
justice, critical animal studies, and liberation courses. Get this
book and share it with others.”—Arissa Media Group
“Intersectionality of Critical Animal Studies is a book that found
our interest because it was not just about nonhuman animals or
animal rights, but about total liberation, which includes racial
justice, social justice, economic justice, gender justice,
disability justice, sexuality justice, and environmental justice.
This book will interest anyone concerned about their community and
the world. This engaging powerful socio-political book will capture
the minds of all social justice individuals.”—Transformative
Justice Journal
“Intersectionality of Critical Animal Studies is an amazing and
needed text within the field of critical animal studies. This
collection of historical brilliant and cutting-edge essays truly
capsulate what critical animal studies is.”—Peace Studies Journal
