Their letters soon grew into a powerful exchange on the subject of where we go from here. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eRehearsals\u003c\/i\u003e is a captivating book, part debate, part dialogue, part lively and detailed familial correspondence between two razor-sharp writers convening on what it means to get free as the world spins into some new orbit. In a genre-defying exchange, the authors collectively envision the possibilities for more liberatory futures during a historic year of Indigenous land defense, prison strikes, and global-Black-led rebellions against policing. By articulating to each other Black and Indigenous perspectives on our unprecedented here and now, and the long-disavowed histories of slavery and colonization that have brought us to this moment in the first place, Maynard and Simpson create something new: a vital demand for a different way forward, and a poetic call to dream up new ways of ordering earthly life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Haymarket Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781642596892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320","brand":"Robyn Maynard, Leanne Betasamosake Simpson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42095635136693,"sku":"9781642596892","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_fc0aaa09-cffc-48ae-8cd5-0fe1e66fdb2c.jpg?v=1651588509","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/rehearsals-for-living-9781642596892","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
