✽A detainee prays in a prison cell at Guantánamo. Rural women in Brazil tend to a bounty of crops, despite threats of expanding agribusinesses. A poet unravels an 1846 British treaty “selling” Kashmir, weaving it into a new form. The poems in this collection attest to the fact that wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. Wherever there is injustice, there is refusal. Wherever power seeks to constrain and dominate, there are ways of forging other paths forward and through.
