UNSETTLING Surviving Extinction Together

Narrator Hillary Huber conveys the variety of emotions found in these personal essays, which urge listeners to rethink how they view climate change. A mix of science, history, and pop culture is all included in this discussion of the impact that colonialism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and other systems of oppression have on the environment. Coming out as queer and building a love of nature are characterized with uncertainty and joy. What's most striking is the rage and sadness we hear, particularly regarding those who haven't done enough to save our planet, the AIDs epidemic, and the prospect of extinction. This heartfelt and impassioned narration aligns with this collection's call for action. L.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2023]
