Despite decades of committed work in geography, the aims of DEI continue to be tested and challenged. This volume assembles perhaps the largest, most diverse group of contributors ever in one volume from various epistemologies, those who embrace multiple identities, academics, community activists, school geographers, university faculty, social theorists, and administrators to share their ideas and once again put DEI on equal footing with other geographical pursuits. Assembling such a group was no small feat. We can only hope that these ideas will get the attention they deserve and continue to further the goal of providing a roadmap to lasting, substantive change. -- Rickie Sanders, Temple University, USA At last, a genre setting book for geographers that engages critically with the broad inclusivity framework of diversity, equity, inclusion and justice. Drawing globally on diverse voices and experiences, the book not only makes the case for DEIJ, but importantly how we can make it more inclusive through teaching, research, mentoring, and outreach, while also outlining possibilities for what is next to come. It will be essential reading for those with a commitment to change within our discipline. -- Linda Peake, York University, Canada This powerful collection is a map to a better future for Geography and the Geosciences, laying out what we know, what can we do, and what is next. The authors present both the intellectual roots of geographers collective labor to grow a more just, inclusive, equitable and diverse field, and clear blueprints for how we can expand that work now and into the future. From the epistemic riches of Black, Latinx, and Indigenous geographies to best practices for reciprocal scholarship, inclusive fieldtrips, and classroom practices, there are chapters in this volume for every geographic subfield and every geographer. -- Rebecca Lave, Indiana University, USA This comprehensive edited book by a diverse group of geographers identifies the problem of severe underrepresentation in the field of geography; explains why this continues to exist; and advocates strategies to remove the barriers to achieving DEI and justice in geography. I recommend this book. -- Joe T. Darden, Michigan State University, USA This is a powerful book that reimagines geographys future through the lens of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice. By bridging interdisciplinary insights and global perspectives, this remarkable group of contributors offers both theoretical and practical guidance on fostering a more inclusive and transformative geographic community for all students, scholars, and practitioners. Together, they assess what we know, what we can do, and what steps should come next as we move forward. -- Ken Foote, University of Connecticut, USA; Past president and fellow, American Association of Geographers, Past president, National Council for Geographic Education
