Description
Seed Strike means refusing to offer seed to society for baby-making purposes, or refusing to accept it. A womb strike, a sperm strike, a birth strike, or a climate strike, anybody is free to look at Seed Strike in their own way, or to look away, no pressure. Seed Strike cries out to the Old Guard for 'serious climate action' and 'true reproductive freedom'. Seed Strike digs down into the underlying 'living law', our everyday rules that don't depend on the government, rules with sanctions, rules with bite. This book bites back, by breaking and (re)making some living laws from the bottom-up. Along the way, Seed Strike walks a curvy path through language laws, guerilla gardens, and Indigenous teachings and territories, returning again and again to the epic struggle for control over baby-making decisions in Canada and America.
See, the beliefs and behaviours marching through many social-and-ecological settings are governed by the living law's Grand Poobah: the biblical commands to "multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it". Maybe that's unbelievable, maybe a Revelation.
