SUMMARY:SOCIETY FOR CUTTING UP PAPER: CONFUSION
DESCRIPTION:Confusion reigns\, like an ailing monarch waiting to be dethroned by age\, illness\, impropriety\, or the guillotine. In the midst of this madness\, only one thing makes sense: taking everything apart and putting it together again. \nJoin the Society for Cutting Up Paper to explore the theme of CONFUSION\, and make the transition from mildly confused to utterly confounded. \n“For me\, collage is mystical. The materials I work with have their own histories\, their own spirits. Collage allows me to drop away from the conscious mind and make seemingly impossible associations. It helps me reframe and rearrange what I think I know.” – Lesley Wood \nAll materials are provided\, but you are welcome to bring more.

SUMMARY:TALK: NO TO NUCLEAR! Linda Pentz Gunter in conversation with Jonathon Porritt
DESCRIPTION:‘Linda Pentz Gunter has done a great service in highlighting the nuclear chain reaction and exposing the huge human and environmental costs. We need this book for our environment and a peaceful world’ \n– Jeremy Corbyn \nWe are delighted to welcome Linda Pentz Gunter to Housmans to discuss her new book No To Nuclear. Brilliantly written\, clear\, concise and exacting\, this brilliant book shows us that there is no silver bullet for the climate crisis—but that hasn’t stopped people searching. Seizing its chance\, the nuclear power industry wants us to believe that theirs is the only technical fix for our deliverance. The public\, politicians and the media have been easily swayed. \nThis should come as no surprise. After all\, the pro-nuclear PR campaign is richly funded and has an army of lobbyists sowing myths while the industry reaps the rewards of taxpayer-funded subsidies. \nNo To Nuclear calls the industry’s bluff. Blasting aside its claims to be safe and green\, Linda Pentz Gunter makes the irresistible case that nuclear power is too slow\, too expensive\, too dangerous and too integrally connected to the nuclear weapons complex\, to serve as a rational energy choice. \nThe book also delves into the lives of Indigenous peoples and communities of colour\, who have been harmed the most by the nuclear sector\, and questions whether the way we devalue nature and the environment is costing us the chance of a genuinely just energy transition. \nLinda Pentz Gunter is the founder of the US-based non-profit Beyond Nuclear and serves as its international specialist. Previously\, she was a journalist at USA Network\, Reuters\, and The Times. She launched\, and writes for Beyond Nuclear’s online magazine\, Beyond Nuclear International. \nJoining Linda in conversation we welcome the environmentalist and writer Johnathon Porritt. Jonathon is a great advocate for the Green Party and frequently contributes to magazines\, newspapers and books\, and appears on radio and television. \n‘Linda Pentz Gunter has the great skill that more writers should have: to take a crucial and complex issue and make it truly accessible. This rigorous and comprehensive work is a gift to everyone who wants to understand the nuclear power paradox’ \n– Kate Hudson\, previous General Secretary of Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament \nAs 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. If you would like to collect it earlier\, or arrange for delivery\, please contact us (postage is £2.95). Telephone 020 7837 4473 or email shop@housmans.com. \nDoors Open at 6:45pm\, Event Starts 7:00. \nShare this:  \n				Share on X (Opens in new window)  \n				X 				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)  \n				Facebook 				Share on Insta (Opens in new window)  \n				Insta  \n			Like this:Like Loading…

SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH: The Mixed + Multiracial Guide To Wellbeing with Namalee Bolle
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a celebratory evening of radical mixed + multiracial discussion! “What aaaaarrrrrrrrrreeeeeee you?!”If you just had that familiar sinking feeling\, this book is for you. Do you point out how alienating and othering that question is? Stand your ground and explain that you don’t have to justify your existence with a pie chart and a family tree? Or keep the peace\, bite your tongue and smile politely at yet another person treating you like a science project? While each mixed person’s experience is different\, there are common threads from living in a monoracial world that weave their way into your life. This book explores ways for mixed and multiracial people to recognise how their identity has shaped their life\, handle common challenges\, and resist othering and erasure.Informed by experience and expertise from both sides of the therapist’s couch\, the Mixed + Multiracial Guide to Wellbeing shows you how to handle microaggressions\, confront systemic issues\, and control your own story. \nThe Mixed + Multiracial Guide to Wellbeing is a timely\, compassionate and quietly radical book that speaks to a fast-growing yet persistently overlooked readership.   \nReviews: \n‘Namalee Bolle successfully brings her readers into an impressive gathering of voices that give depth and breadth to the mixed and multiracial experience. This book invites us all to bring a deeper understanding to our own identities\, and the ways we find belonging and meaning in the world’ \nMarcia Bonato Warren MA MA LPC\, author of Movement and Identity: Multiculturalism\, Somatic Awareness\, and Embodied Code-Switching \n‘Bolle examines the complexities of mixed-race identity and confronts them with thoughtful\, tangible solutions. The Mixed + Multiracial Guide to Wellbeing is a relatable and fascinating read for anyone who’s ever fielded the question\, “What are you?” And essential for anyone who’s asked it’ \n Nabil Ayers\, author of My Life in the Sunshine \nOUR SPEAKERS: \nNamalee Bolle is a London-based multidisciplinary artist\, transpersonal transcultural integrative psychotherapist and award winning writer.

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

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: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:Brockley Anarchist Reading Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we begin our discussion of Jérôme Baschet’s The Zapatista Experience: Rebellion\, Resistance\, and Autonomy. ​This book examines the practical reality of the Zapatista movement in Chiapas\, Mexico\, focusing on how they have constructed a society independent of the state. Baschet explores the creation of autonomous systems of justice\, health\, and education. The text invites us to look at a living example of radical democracy and to consider the possibilities of self-governance in the face of global capitalism. ​We’ll be exploring how these practices of autonomy and dignity can inform our own political imagination today. ​All are welcome! Whether you are a lifelong anarchist or just beginning your journey\, join us to read\, discuss\, and imagine a freer world together.

SUMMARY:Archiving from Below:  DIY Psychoanalysis and the Free Clinic Archive
DESCRIPTION:For the next event in our ‘Archiving from Below’ series\, we invite two researchers from the Freepsy Research Collective: ‘Free Clinics and a Psychoanalysis for the People: Progressive Histories\, Collective Practices\, Implications for our Times’ to discuss historical findings from free clinics\, grassroots psychoanalytic groups and the future of memory.  \nThe first part will explore DIY psychoanalytic movements in the 1970s in the UK\, including the Barefoot Psychoanalyst\, the Red Collective\, and Red Therapy. Feminist and liberatory social movements of the time critiqued traditional psychoanalysis and implemented new DIY psy practices that addressed how power is maintained through capitalism and political oppression. This history showcases a horizontally structured psychoanalysis that is both a clinical and political exercise\, organised in a very particular manner: the hierarchy between patient and analyst is consistently challenged\, reassessed\, and modified. DIY methods and self-help in this framework imply mutuality and a horizontal relationship based on the exchange of skills\, knowledge\, and resources rather than hierarchy. In this session\, we will grasp historically both hope and despair: examples of activism\, psychoanalysis\, and mutual care as a collective practice of experimentation.  \nThe second part of the session will encourage us to think together about changing archives and archival practice\, especially in relation to collective and social memory. We ask how new collaborative relationships between archives and their users are developing the future of memory. With the notion of the traditional archive dismantling\, we’ll also look at how this reconfiguration of the archive is shifting the mode from exclusivity to inclusivity\, a central theme shared with the free clinics.  \nYou will encounter archival objects from the UK to Brazil that record and retell a history of psychoanalysis as a practice from below. This session will be interactive and open to experimentation\, sharing ideas\, and\, hopefully\, helping us link past and present while imagining the future of psychoanalysis and a network of free clinics.  \nSign up in bio!

SUMMARY:MAY WE FEED THE KING: Writing Radical Fiction Today with Rebecca Perry & Misha Honcharenko
DESCRIPTION:Perry combines effortless exactitude with canny ambiguity to create a novel that is always as stimulating as it is enchanting. ‘May We Feed the King’ is a rare achievement\, I absolutely loved it. \nClaire-Louise Bennett \nWe are delighted to welcome two of the most exciting writers working in Britain today\, Rebecca Perry and Misha Honcharenko\, to Housmans for our first creative writing event of the year. The talk will be focused on Rebecca’s new novel May We Feed The King (Granta)\, a ‘serial and dreamlike’ (Jessie Burton) work of avant-garde historical fiction that tells the story of ‘ a curator\, who spends her time dressing the rooms of historic buildings to bring them to life. But in the lush private quarters of a medieval palace\, she finds herself so transfixed by the reign of an almost-forgotten King that the edges of her life begin to blur.’ Interviewing Rebecca about the book we welcome back Misha Honcharenko\, a queer Ukrainian artist and writer whose incredible debut novel Trap Unfolds Me Greedily (Sissy Anarchy) we launched at Housmans back in 2024. The are two writers whose work is in equal parts inventive and alert to the historical circumstances under which it is produced. As the current global order continues to dissolve before our eyes\, we ask: what can\, or should\, ‘fiction’ be now? \nAs 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. If you would like to collect it earlier\, or arrange for delivery\, please contact us (postage is £2.95). Telephone 020 7837 4473 or email shop@housmans.com. \nDoors Open at 6:45pm\, Event Starts 7:00.

SUMMARY:Reading Group 18 – Poll Tax Rebellion
DESCRIPTION:For our eighteenth reading group we will be reading Poll Tax Rebellion by Danny Burns. From the blurb: This book tells the gripping inside story of the biggest mass movement in British history\, which at its peak involved over 17 million people. Using a combination of photos\, text\, and graphics\, and drawing from the voices of activists and non-payers\, it describes the everyday organisation of local anti-poll tax groups and chronicles the demonstrations and riots leading up to the battle of Trafalgar Square. It shows how the courts were blocked\, the bailiffs resisted\, and the Poll Tax destroyed. The final chapter draws from our experience to present a radically new vision of change from below.  \nA free version of Poll Tax Rebellion can be found at Libcom here and our friends at Freedom Press here have offered a 10% discount on physical copies for the reading group. Just quote “London SolFed Reading Group” or pop into Freedom for your general radical book buying needs. You are welcome to come and join in the discussion even if you have not finished the reading.
