Underserved communities--people of color, women, and queer people among them--were affected the most, and their experiences, in turn, reflected hope and opportunities to reinvent themselves individually and collectively. Drawing on Gloria Anzaldúa's use of \u003ci\u003enepantla\u003c\/i\u003e--the Náhuatl word meaning \"in-between space,\" the\u003ci\u003e en medio\u003c\/i\u003e and a liminal space between worlds imbued with change--\u003ci\u003eWorld Making in Nepantla\u003c\/i\u003e collects writings about the hurdles feminist scholars of color faced during the pandemic years. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Contributors explore how COVID affected feminist scholars of color while recognizing the ways in which inequality influences experience and also celebrating the resilience of communities all over the world. Dispatches from classrooms and quarantined homes and introspective essays on disability, mutual aid, and borders are included among the essays here. These pieces serve as a concrete record, capturing an ephemeral time already being lost to memory. Created during the heart of the pandemic, \u003ci\u003eWorld Making in Nepantla \u003c\/i\u003eis an honest and intimate recording of how feminist scholars of color navigated struggles and found strength during an era that forever changed the modern world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Gloria González-López is an award-winning author and Professor of Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Sharmila Rudrappa is an award-winning author, Professor of Sociology, and department head at the University of Illinois, Chicago. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Christen A.
