Editor\/Curator\u2019s Note<\/strong>: Storytelling, from science fiction and fantasy, to fables and folklore, has informed our thinking about nature and the built environment.

How do we exist in ways that are sustainable, reproduceable, and affirming? How do we write racialized and queer characters whose futurity is realistic and humanity is futuristic? What imaginative labour can give us tools toward freedom? How can leisurely activities restore us, playlists energize us, cookbooks gather us, walking alert us, and being bored or exhausted to death be resisted?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
