An anthology of essays and new visions of a modern, socially conscious witchcraft on the frontiers of progress and justice. 

 

Subtitled Powerful Voices on Witchcraft Ethics, this is a collection of essays by witches from a wide range of backgrounds and lived experiences, who contribute their unique perspectives to a vision of witchcraft that questions and challenges the systems of oppression and marginalisation that pervade the modern world. There are essays on the cross-sections between witchcraft, queerness and class; decolonisation and indigenous cultures in modern witchcraft; a trans witch recounts not only the medical but also ritual forms of their transition; there are meditations on the complexities of masculinity in witchcraft, the role of witchcraft in the era of the Anthropocene, and the continuing relevance of persecution history to modern-day witch-hunts. This book is an important read and a clarion call for witches to consider the oppression based on race, gender, sexuality and disability that perhaps confront us more than ever today.
