Eli Clare's revelatory writing about his experiences as a white disabled genderqueer activist\/writer established him as one of the leading writers on the intersections of queerness and disability and permanently changed the landscape of disability politics and queer liberation. With a poet's devotion to truth and an activist's demand for justice, Clare deftly unspools the multiple histories from which our ever-evolving sense of self unfolds. His essays weave together memoir, history, and political thinking to explore meanings and experiences of home: home as place, community, bodies, identity, and activism. Here readers will find an intersectional framework for understanding how we actually live with the daily hydraulics of oppression, power, and resistance. At the root of Clare's exploration of environmental destruction and capitalism, sexuality and institutional violence, gender and the body politic, is a call for social justice movements that are truly accessible to everyone. With heart and hammer, \u003ci\u003eExile and Pride\u003c\/i\u003e pries open a window onto a world where our whole selves, in all their complexity, can be realized, loved, and embraced. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEli Clare is a poet, essayist, activist, and the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Marrow's Telling: Words in Motion\u003c\/i\u003e.
