Winner of a 2026 CCCC Advancement of Knowledge Award-Honorable Mention. The award is presented annually for the empirical research publication in the previous two years that most advances writing studies.


This book demonstrates how local knowledge and transcultural practices of recognizing, highlighting, and valuing marginalized perspectives during or after a crisis create an opportunity for tackling social injustices in post-disaster situations. With grounded case studies of the 2015 Nepal earthquake and 2017 Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, this book showcases how locals in marginalized and colonized spaces overcome disaster-created complexities via coalitional and transnational engagements.
