Coles Being at Home: Living Autonomously in an Unjust World at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

In Being at Home , Asha Leena Bhandary offers a bold reimagining of liberal political philosophy through the lens of intersectionality. Engaging deeply with race, gender, and caregiving relationships, Bhandary reorients traditional discourse around autonomy, establishing the significance of her lived experience as a biracial Asian American woman, philosopher, and mother in the American Heartland. By shifting the focus from abstract individualism to embodied, relational autonomy, Being at Home reframes key debates in liberalism, multiculturalism, and feminist care theory. Bhandary argues that autonomy cannot be meaningfully theorized without attending to the values of belonging and care--especially for women of color, whose lives are often shaped by exclusion and systemic stress. Drawing on personal narrative and interdisciplinary scholarship--including Asian American philosophy, Black feminist thought, Latinx feminism, health disparities research, psychology, and reproductive justice--Bhandary develops a compelling framework for intersectional liberalism . This new approach to liberal theory confronts the realities of social hierarchy and group boundaries and offers tools for resilience, counterfactual living, and belonging. Being at Home is essential reading for anyone seeking a more inclusive, care-centered vision of freedom, one that responds to the complexities of contemporary life and expands the possibilities of liberal thought.
