From: Refuse
$0.80
In her essay, A. H. Reaume draws on the work of activists like Jael Richardson, Alicia Elliott, and Carrianne Leung,who argue that we must resist the desire to push past critique into optimism. Instead, Reaume joins in the call for allies who are invested in making CanLit more just to engage in the necessary, urgent work of pointing to systemic inequities and demanding that they be changed.
