Gerlich, R: Out of the Fog: On Politics, Feminism and Coming

Bag om Gerlich, R: Out of the Fog: On Politics, Feminism and Coming

From racialised police brutality to climate change, #MeToo, 'trans rights, ' COVID-19, the prospect of nuclear war, and the prevalence of trauma--we are constantly bombarded with high stakes problems that we are expected to speak out about and act on. On closer inspection, the popular solutions to each of these problems aren't easy to reconcile. Black Lives Matter activists demand prison abolition, while #MeToo feminists want rapists in jail--and while our objections to war and police brutality make us suspicious of state institutions in general, our responses to climate change and COVID-19 reinforce our dependency on them. Out of the Fog cuts through the confusion. Renée Gerlich suggests that readers move beyond feeling overwhelmed and emotionally manipulated.
