It is both a fairly large and abstract concept, and at the same time a very simple direct and emotive one. I do see joyful militancy as closely tied with emotion, on the individual and collective level, and will get to that with some of the later questions. The role of joy, in particular in the way you describe it, is often absent – though not entirely – from our conversations and constructions in the northern part of the Americas and Europe. It all resonates deeply with things I have been thinking, witnessing, fearing and dreaming. Marina Sitrin (MS): I am so excited for this project. As time went on in the researching, interviewing and writing of the book our ideas and articulations shifted and for that, we are deeply indebted to all our interviewees who offered new insights and shed light on areas that needed reworking.Ĭarla & Nick (c&N): Based on what we’ve told you about the book project, can you tell us what resonates and what doesn’t? This interview was completed in early 2016 as part of the research for Joyful Militancy. We (carla and Nick) sent Marina Sitrin a ‘preamble’ outlining some of the ideas behind the book, and then included a couple questions based on Sitrin’s other writings (especially Horizontalidad - published in English as Horizontalism- and Everyday Revolutions). This is part of a series of about the project. Joyful Militancy by carla bergman and Nick Montgomery foregrounds forms of life in the cracks of Empire, revealing the ways that fierceness, tenderness, curiosity, and commitment can be intertwined.

To research the Antarctic background for Sun at Midnight, Rosie spent a month living with the scientists on a Bulgarian research station on Livingstone Island, off the Antarctic Peninsula. It is very apparent the author did significant research into the setting of this book. When it looks like the weather may trap them for longer, everyone's true colors show and the reader avidly waits for their rescue. As Alice learns how to survive in the cold, she also learns how to survive with the other nine people in the station - who can be trusted and who to avoid. Even as a scientist who often worked alone, she was shocked at the isolation and the unpredictable weather. The main character is Alice Peel, a geologist who went to do research because her mother (a world renowned scientist) asked her to go in her place and because she needed to get away from her home due to a painful breakup with her boyfriend. The loneliness and isolation caused them to become friends very quickly but not true friends. There were only 10 people at a small research station - they were strangers to each other, from different countries and were basically going into their months at the station with no information about anyone's past. Not only was the setting beautiful but it was also stark and lonely.

Like many literary works written by black people during this time, Equiano's work was discredited as a false presentation of his slavery experience.The African slave's voyage from Africa ( Igbo Land) to the Americas and England.The book describes Equiano's time spent in enslavement, and documents his attempts at becoming an independent man through his study of the Bible, and his eventual success in gaining his own freedom and in business thereafter.
