TO ACCOMPANY IS POLITICAL: A TRANSFEMINIST ESSAY ON HOMELESSNESS by Florencia Montes Paez

A5, 248 pages, Black & white printing, Perfect bound, Softcover, 2026

‘To Accompany is Political’ recounts the journey of No Tan Distintes [Not So Different, NTD], a social, political and transfeminist organisation in Buenos Aires, Argentina. This transfeminist essay highlights the challenges and lessons from 15 years of activism accompanying women and queer people who are or have been homeless.

Between political essay, philosophical reflection, gender study and methodology in practice, this book speaks from experience to address harm reduction, self-management of homelessness spaces, interdependence, collective memory and how we sustain ourselves in life and the struggle.

As Milei’s Argentina becomes a testing ground for ultraliberal austerity, this books tells the story of the queer anti-fascist groups leading their own laboratory of resistance, from collective housing to bureaucratic accompaniment, Argentina’s militantes are demonstrating how to resist and create alternatives. This book showcases this learning not just for social organisations working on homelessness, but for the public sector, universities, charities, community spaces and our personal daily practice; showing us how to accompany, as a political act.
