Become Ungovernable is a provocative new work of political
thought setting out to reclaim 'freedom', 'justice', and 'democracy',
revolutionary ideas that are all too often warped in the interests of
capital and the state.
Revealing the mirage
of mainstream democratic thought and the false promises of liberal
political ideologies, H. L. T. Quan offers an alternative approach:
an abolition feminism drawing on a kaleidoscope of refusal praxes,
and on a deep engagement with the Black Radical Tradition and queer
analytics.
With each chapter
anchored by episodes from the long history of resistance and
rebellions against tyranny, Quan calls for us to take up a feminist
ethic of living rooted in the principles of radical inclusion,
mutuality, and friendship as part of the larger toolkit for
confronting fascism, white supremacy, and the neoliberal labor
regime.
