SUMMARY:Women\, Feminism and Anarchist Communism
DESCRIPTION:Presentation/discussion on women organising against oppression\, history of feminism and how these struggles relate to anarchist communism. March 8th is International Women’s Day. Every year\, capitalist institutions\, media\, and politicians show their support\, forgetting the Day’s working class and anti-capitalist origins.   This date actually commemorates March 8th 1909\, when 129 women employees of a cotton textile factory in New York were killed when the factory boss set fire to the factory while all of them were inside making a protest demanding labour rights. This meeting will look at the way women globally have fought back against their oppression. Issues include: control over their bodies\, workplace\, the community\, the home\, and violence. We will also consider the development of feminism. The current backlash against women’s liberation struggles from the right and authoritarian religious currents will also be discussed. Anarchist communism believes not only in ending capitalism\, but all hierarchies and oppressions. We will discuss some of the history of women and anarchist communism before opening up the discussion to questions of what anarchist communism can learn from feminism and women’s struggles and why more women aren’t part of a revolutionary anarchist communist movement.   https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/women-feminism-and-anarchist-communism-tickets-1983189905393

SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH: Frontierlands by Hazel Sheffield
DESCRIPTION:‘Hazel Sheffield’s book is a warming remedy to the creeping nihilism many feel about the places where they live\,’ Jen Calleja \nWe are delighted to welcome Hazel Sheffield to the shop to discuss her inspiring new book about Britain’s abandoned and neglected places and the opportunities they present for communities\, and how they can help us face the challenges of climate change. \n‘Frontierlands’ are Britain’s forgotten places. Silt-filled harbours\, overgrown forests\, sunken railway tracks and empty buildings. All once economic engines\, now abandoned by investors and the state.But they are home to local communities\, and amongst them\, some remarkable pioneers working together to repair\, rebuild and prepare for the future.Hazel Sheffield takes her readers on a journey that begins at the coastline and travels inward via hoardings and railway arches\, factories\, streets and neighbourhoods to our homes. Moving from Watchet harbour in the South West to Gateshead in the North East\, from Lancashire to London and the South East\, she introduces us to the people who are acting to shape their own destinies – people with first-hand knowledge of the problems Britain faces and with clear ideas how to make things better.This is a book about regeneration\, reclaiming power\, and the hope that comes from community action. About people questioning how the world works and determined to do things differently in the face of economic upheaval and climate crisis. People learning to build a new world\, challenging us all to think about how we should live in the face of certain change. \nImmersive and inspiring\, Frontierlands challenges us to reconnect with and reclaim our environment\, showing that it is possible to regenerate\, reskill and create opportunities for industry\, and to address the challenges of climate change \nHazell will speak about the book for around 45 minutes- 1hr followed by a q&a. She will be signing books after the event.As always\, tickets are priced on a sliding scale. If you are unable to pay for a ticket please do not hesitate to contact us at shop@housmans.com\, and a free ticket will be made available. \nIf you choose ‘book +entry’ your copies of the book will be available to collect on the evening.

SUMMARY:SITUATIONISM REVISITED: Creative Anarchy Part 2
DESCRIPTION:For our second session\, we will be (re)assessing the historical legacy and ongoing practices of Situationist approaches to creativity\, social intervention\, and anti-art practices more broadly. This discussion will be kickstarted by a roundtable of artists\, researchers and donors to the collection\, and then open out into a collective interrogation of the anarchic possibilities of Situationist practices. From lettrist interventions and May 68 insurgency to three-sided football and psychogeographic wandering\, Situationist practices can teach us a lot about what it might mean to create anarchically.  \n‘Creative Anarchy’ is an event series exploring the relationships between anarchist thought\, organising\, and creative practice. Resulting from a placement at the Mayday Rooms\, researcher Ruari Paterson-Achenbach will host a series of discussions around materials in the archive\, alongside creative practitioners\, trying to explore what it might mean to ‘create anarchically’. What might it mean to consider creative practice a form of direct action\, or vice-versa? How can artists incorporate the principles of mutual aid into their work? Is the notion of ‘art’ compatible with anarchist thought? Across these three events\, we will answer these questions together using historical examples\, with all the possibilities and limitations they might offer us.*  \nSign up here  \nForthcoming events In the series (tickets available end of March): \nCreativity and Mutual Aid  – Thursday 9th April 2026 7-9pm
