About this item
by Lateisha Davine Lovelace-Hanson (Author)
the heart is a holding is a visceral journey through birth, life and death cycles
across personal, intergenerational and ancestral time. Moving through
landscapes of spirituality, earth futurity and memory it is a calling to embody
the current moment through the ever present hauntings of social-climate
injustices and apocalyptic reality. Lateisha seeks healing through the lens
of survivorship and legacy. As transformation. As the gathering of love,
holding and dignity for Black mothers, earthworkers and care-givers beyond
gendering, beyond racialisation, beyond this time.
Weaving life-giving refl ections, love letters and funeral rites together as
imprints of belonging. Expressing multidimensional ways of being, across
the realms of Blackness, queerness, disability and working-class immigrant
and diasporic experience as conduits to call in the powers of lineage,
survivorship and purposerpose.
