After the Family

I am forever a fangirl for Sophie Lewis' political fervor and bite but for a manifesto it could do with a little less sounding like a bibliography and historical fundament-tracing. It is more a (strong!) defense and underpinning of what she has written about family abolition before than an actual manifesto. Sophie Lewis conjures up the countless ghosts of theories and activism on whose shoulders hers stands. It is a good primer for family abolition through the years with lots of sources to read on with a fiery note of inspiration/ass-kick to think about how to build a future with something better replacing family and capitalism.
