The book explores co-authored dynamics of collective knowledge production in feminist and queer geographies. It examines how to use co-authorship as a generative feminist practice of care, endurance, and institutional transformation in support of feminism’s next generation of intellectual communities.This book reveals the auto-biographical back-stories and emotional registers of geographical knowledge production through the co-written chapter intimacies of letters, poetry, interviews, and conversations. In doing so, it demonstrates the care-full and hope-full power of collaborations, mentorships, solidarities, and friendships to not only sustain lives and careers but also to enable social change. It confronts neoliberal reification of individual scholarship as the celebrated metric of academic productivity and presents co-authorship as a practice and politics of generating hope through the dynamics of collective care that its collaborations, mentorships, solidarities, and friendships manifest and sustain.This is an interdisciplinary book at the interstices of Geography, Anthropology, Cultural Studies, Education, Sociology, Women’s and Gender Studies, and LGBTQ+ Studies. Its intended audiences are scholars of pedagogy, feminist and queer theory, and sexual and gender minority life. It targets upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, writers, and educators.

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of LGBTQ+ centers and organizations in urban areas, a phenomenon that began in North American and Western European cities four decades ago and now flourishes around the world.It analyzes two different LGBTQ+ organizations in Israel: the Jerusalem Open House and the Tel Aviv LGBTQ Center. It traces their different histories, sociocultural and geographical locations, and different social relations. Both have become essential players in Israeli LGBTQ+ activism and urban hubs for the LGBTQ+ community. The book provides a case study of an understudied aspect of LGBTQ+ community life from a region outside North America and Europe, offering a comprehensive analysis that foregrounds different types of spaces, traces movements across cities, and employs varied analytical approaches to examine a significant location in global LGBTQ+ politics. The book explores the spatial activism produced in these spaces, the gendered power relations structured within them, the social groups they engage and serve, the political organizations that have emerged there, and their role as catalysts for broader social movements. It also addresses the planning processes and local political negotiations involved in their establishment. Through this lens, the book highlights current debates surrounding this phenomenon, including local and national tensions, homonationalism and pinkwashing, trauma and social movements, and the neoliberal conditions framing both centers.This book will be of interest to students of geography, sociology, anthropology, urban studies, planning, tourism studies, cultural studies, gender studies, and LGBTQ+ studies.
