Summary:"Sharon Patricia Holland's an other brings a Black feminist analysis to thinking about human and animal relations. Specifically, Holland wants to know what relation animals have to Black humanity. For example, she studies MOVE-the communal organization advocating for nature laws and natural living in Philadelphia in the 1970s-and the way they lived alongside animals. She emphasizes the racial logics of this situation, especially in terms of the policing and white racist anti-MOVE protests that followed. What sets Holland's work apart from other books that think about human and animal relationality is her focus on cohabitation and being with each other. This focus challenges ways of thinking about ontology in post-continental philosophy, new materialism, and animal studies and also opens a new approach to these fields from the perspective of Black studies and Black feminist theory"-- Provided by publisher
