Deviant Hollers

"Centering a critique of settler colonialism, Deviant Hollers brilliantly envisions environmental politics away from the constraints of econormativity."

~Heather Davis, author of Plastic Matter

"A rich collection of work that delightfully confounds typical narratives of what it means to be from, and live in, Appalachia by offering future possibilities for queer belonging, environmental justice, and liberation."

~stef shuster, author of Trans Medicine: The Emergence and Practice of Treating Gender

"An expansive and evocative rethinking of Appalachian studies. Beyond challenging metronormative narratives of queer urban-ness or presenting Appalachian cultures and geographies as queered with regard to US national norms, the collection addresses how those dynamics are themselves enmeshed within ongoing histories of settler colonialism in which non-Indigenous Appalachians participate."

~Mark Rifkin, author of Beyond Settler Time: Temporal Sovereignty and Indigenous Self-Determination
