Violence is a complex phenomenon. When power is leveraged over the mind, body, and spirit, where in the galaxy can the survivor of domestic violence escape? Domestic violence mutates and traverses every major component of humanity. This book provides an in-depth discussion of culturally specific issues and systems of oppression impacting the diverse spectrum of domestic violence survivors.
Healing from domestic violence requires that we question, interrogate, understand, accept, and then love the parts of ourselves that society and our abuser diminish. All efforts to end violence against women ultimately have to return to this question: How do we change societal values so that women’s rights to live free of insults, invasion, disempowerment, and intimidation are respected?
Domestic violence is not uniquely intersectional. In fact, most things are related in some capacity to ours and other social identities. We can and should apply intersectionality to everything we do. More than a theory, intersectionality offers a way of living with, thinking about, and contributing to the world around us. As members of a global community, it’s essential to understand each other’s nuances, and instrumentalize those nuances in global problems. The goal of this book was to express some of the differences in our experiences of violence.
Topics like Islamophobia, Antisemitism, disability rights, Christian cults, abuse in domestic violence shelters, modern slavery, and welfare politics are also relevant to our discussions. While it’s not possible to get to everything in a book of this size, I hope you are engaged and ready to take on those topics individually. If this book is your introduction to domestic violence, I hope you will continue to “do the work” as they say, and think about what wasn’t covered here, or what you’d like to learn more about.
And furthermore, as we hope this book respects, domestic violence is not solely an issue of heteropatriarchy or male supremacy...

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
