The Sage Handbook of Decolonial Theory is a vital and urgent contribution to the ongoing struggles for liberation across the Global South and beyond. This volume resists the erasure of politically grounded knowledge and affirms the epistemic centrality of Indigenous, Black, Latinx, and Palestinian thought and praxis in the fight against racial capitalism, settler colonialism, and heteropatriarchy. As the Palestinian Feminist Collective, we recognize this work as part of a larger struggle to dismantle the structures that sustain oppression and dispossession. We celebrate this Handbook for its commitment to inter-epistemic dialogue, its refusal to accommodate colonial knowledge production, and its insistence on theory as action—rooted in the lived realities of those resisting empire. Everyone engaged in academic organizing must read this book; it is an essential resource for scholars and activists committed to decolonial thought and practice. -- The Palestinian Feminist Collective This brilliantly conceptualized collection brings together a plurality of differently situated decolonial theories, analyses, empirics, and material practices, around the axes of the coloniality of power, of knowledge, of being, and of gender. It vastly opens up current discussions about relations of power, discourse, material conditions, and the many kinds and dimensions of political resistance, in important new ways. This astonishing transdisciplinary book will become a classic, indeed required reading, for the field. -- Paola Bacchetta
