"As white nationalist and authoritarian movements push toward isolation and individualism, other currents continue to gather strength. Antiracism, feminism, expansive understandings of gender, environmental thinking, scientific discovery, and Indigenous and non-Western ways of knowing resonate across borders and generations, pointing toward a more relational and interconnected world."
"A writer, historian, and activist, Solnit is the author of more than twenty books exploring feminism, western and urban history, popular power, social change and insurrection, wandering and walking, hope and catastrophe. Across her work, she listens for the deeper frequencies of change-the ways ideas, struggles, and solidarities echo across time."
Rebecca Solnit, a prolific writer, historian, and activist, examines converging progressive currents reshaping global society. While white nationalist and authoritarian movements promote isolation, antiracism, feminism, expanded gender understanding, environmentalism, scientific discovery, and Indigenous ways of knowing are resonating across borders and generations. Solnit's work traces these deeper frequencies of change, exploring how ideas, struggles, and solidarities echo through time. Her book The Beginning Comes After the End reflects on profound shifts since 1960, revealing long vibrations of change often unnoticed in the moment. A conversation with Malcolm Clemens Young explores how social, political, scientific, and cultural transformations resonate across decades and what these resonances suggest about imagining the future.
