The heart is a holding - Paperback

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.
