Toxic Loves, Impossible Futuresis anhomage to a constellation of women writers, feminists, and creators whosevoices draw a map of our current global political-environmental crisis and the interlinked massive violence,enabled by the denigration of life and human relationships. In a world, in which ""a woman's voice"" exists in bodies called in to occupy important positions in corporations, government, cultural and academic institutions, to work in factories, to join the army, but whose bodies are systematically rendered vulnerable by gender violence and by the double burden imposed on us to perform bothproductive and reproductive labor, I askwhat is the task of thoughtand formin contemporary feminist situated knowledge?Toxic Loves, Impossible Futuresis a collection of essays rethinkingfeminist issues in the current context ofthe production of redundant populations, the omnipresence of the technosphere and environmental devastation,toxic relationships, toxic nationalisms, and more. These reflections and dialogues are an urgent attempt to resist the present in the company of the voices of women like bell hooks, Sarah Ahmed, Leslie Jamison, Lina Meruane, Leanne Simpson, Chris Kraus, AlaÍde Foppa, Lorena Wolffer, Sayak Valencia, Pip Day, Veronica GonzÁlez, Eimear McBride, Simone de Beauvoir, Elena Poniatowska, Susan Sontag, Margaret Randall, Simone Weil, Arundhati Roy, Marta Lamas, Paul B. Preciado, Dawn Paley, Raquel GutiÉrrez, etc. Toxic Loves, Impossible Futurescontinues the discussion on how to undo misogyny and dismantle heteropatriarchy's sublimating and denigrating tricks against women, which are intrinsically linked to colonialism and violence against the Earth.
