CANCER JOURNAL
Cancer is the sign of care, emotional depth, and collective memory.
It governs our sense of home and the responsibility of protecting one another in the face of harm. Cancer asks us to take vulnerability seriously and to recognize care as a form of power.
As part of the Revolutionary Journals for Reflection & Resistance series, this Cancer journal treats care, mutual aid, and emotional survival as revolutionary political acts. It is a space to write through grief and love, to honor chosen family, and to reflect on what it means to keep people alive under conditions of neglect and violence. In a world that abandons the most marginalized, Cancer insists on responsibility to one another.
This journal features the words and image of revolutionary Cancer, Sylvia Rivera, born on July 2nd in New York City. A Puerto Rican and Venezuelan trans activist, Rivera was a co-founder of STAR, Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries, an organization dedicated to supporting homeless queer and trans youth. Her work reshaped liberation movements by insisting that community care and housing must be central to any struggle for justice.
A bold, matte hardcover holds 150 cream-colored lined pages. This is not a journal for emotional retreat. It is a journal for remembering, for care as resistance, and for holding one another through change.
