Y’all. We are so excited to share that we are working on a forthcoming anthology. The working title is Nursing a Radical Imagination: Moving from History and Theory to Action and Alternate Futures. Keep you eye on this spot for news on this project as it evolves.
With Nursing a Radical Imagination, we will share works that reflect on the realities created by the COVIDICENE for nursing and healthcare, recognizing that these realities are not new but rather the result of ongoing hegemonies. The crucible of the COVID19 pandemic amplifies preexisting injustice, exploiting the faults and fissures constructed through hundreds of years of capitalist extraction. The need for critical perspectives and building a more just, equitable future for nursing, healthcare, communities, the world is at a fever pitch. In Nursing a Radical Imagination, we consider the role our disciplinary history plays in constructing the present while critically examining the current state of affairs in nursing and healthcare. We propose a radical imagination for nursing and layout possibilities for futures not yet considered, embracing queer, feminist, posthuman, and abolitionist frames.
We are so excited to share this news and brag on our inimitable and amazing collaborators. Check out what they are up to in the gallery below!
