Radical reading and reflection is incomplete without actions that help build the systems of care we imagine for our world. It is also incomplete if we do not engage meaningfully and critically with the social, economic and political systems of our time. We write this in 2024, a year that will no doubt be recorded in history as the year where the most publicly enacted genocide was enabled by the most powerful countries, and another was sidelined, and invisibilized  by a racist media. As a literary space we stand for Palestine, Sudan, the Congo, Kashmir and for all people oppressed under the brutality of settler colonialism and unchecked capitalist greed.
