Domestic homicide involves violence at the most intimate level -
the partner or family relationship. The most common strategy for
addressing this kind of transgression relies on policing and
prisons. But through examining commonly accepted typologies of
intimate partner violence, Ardath Whynacht shows that policing can
be understood as part of the same root problem as the violence it
seeks to mend. This book illustrates that the origins of both the
carceral state and toxic masculinity are situated in settler
colonialism and racial capitalism. Describing an experience of
domestic homicide in her community and providing a deeply personal
analysis of some of the most recent cases of homicide in Canada,
the author inhabits the complexity of seeking abolitionist justice.
Insurgent Love traces the major risk factors for domestic homicide
within the structures of racial capitalism and suggests
transformative, anti-capitalist, anti-racist, feminist approaches
for safety, prevention and justice.
