Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
Poems are kisses, fists, and underground rivers. For all these reasons and many more, I am a poet.
A panel exploring the radical potential of technologies through fugitivity and opacity: their ability to obscure, to make it impossible for us to be known, to render us untraceable by every arm of the state even under the all-consuming spectre of surveillance capital.

Is it possible to dance our way out of the hardened stances and identity prisons we are locked in?
A workshop for educators, activists and young people to think about radical, anti-imperialist pedagogy, and what fighting for the Palestinian cause looks like for young people in the imperial core. PDF of the resource available soon.
