IN OUR LIFETIME Workshop

IN OUR LIFETIME Workshop

You can downland IN OUR LIFETIME resource here

Hussein Mitha is hosting 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.

The workshop will take as its starting point IN OUR LIFETIME, an anti-imperialist resource, edited by Hussein Mitha, produced by Arika, featuring poetry, essays, questions, prompts, letters and works of anti-colonial imaginary by Lola Olufemi, Mira Mattar, Hannah Proctor, Houria Bouteldja, Farah Saleh, Amirah M Silmi, Maya Uppal, Ghassan Abu-Sittah, Ayreen Anstas, Rene Gabri and Sulaïman Majali. The resource reflects the historical and contemporary internationalism of the Palestinian resistance, the universalising effect of the Palestinian cause, and the reciprocal, non uni-directional modes of solidarity at work today. Thinking through the relation between Palestinian intifada, and revolution in the imperial core, it aims to provide tools for steadfastness and action towards Palestinian liberation, to imagine, build structures, warp imperial temporality, and break through the many impasses of the present conjuncture.

Copies will be distributed to workshop participants. The workshop will involve informal discussion and sharing, some space for quiet reading and contemplation, and some practical exercises.

Suitable for people age 16+

This event was previously called: Intifada, Revolution! An Anti-imperialist Resource for Young People
