Bringing together seasoned to emerging DS/DSE scholars writing from within multiple positionalities, this volume illuminates and interrogates the rewards and struggles of working the interstice between disability studies and special education. The collection constructs a highly diverse communal space for the reader to consider consilience, self-study, and radical love as a collective way forward. Of significance, radical love as the challenge to whiteness and ableism is one of the most compelling and generative arguments I have read to date. I can hardly wait for my students to engage with this provocative work!

At a moment in human history in which the foundations of what we have known in our local and networked communities seem tattered and more liquid than solid, I welcome this edited volume which challenges the boxes in which many have lived professionally and personally. We need to center our love and commitments to growing as we (re)mediate what it means to know and practice as educators, family members, and advocates. I hope you too will be touched by a volume that puts radical love in the middle of finding common grounds. Hernandez-Saca, Pearson, and Voulgarides have given us a present to take on our journey.
