This book was gorgeous and it was specifically Clare's approach to writing into complex situations where different experiences lead to different politics that made it so brilliant. His willingness to own both his own perspective and the way that it is jostled (his language) by being in community and longing for that jostling is so important. It's a model of what I want articulations of theory to be - an imbricated set of observations and experiences and values and people that build up to create the polity, not just a politics.
He's so good and so thoughtful and I want to read more things written with this level of compassion undergirded by values.
