SUMMARY:Germinar #4: More Abolition
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Joana Matias \n\n‘A germinar is a space of collective learning\, fun\, and repose. It has no learning outcomes\, no requirements\, no teachers\, and no curriculum. Instead\, we aim to create a collective that is self-run and self-taught\, that looks at austerity\, the neoliberal university\, and immigration policies in the UK in the context of queer lives and queer theory. \nWe intend to create a space that is open and unstructured for people to come share ideas and intervene without the stress and the labor of organising\, while still reflecting on the realities of our lives\, our city\, and our futures. We will avoid producing more politics at all costs. \n+++ \nBecause last time’s discussion on abolishing gender was not done with us – or we weren’t done with it-\, we’re going to be reflecting on the concept of abolition still. We’re still preparing a small collection of readings as always\, so if there’s anything you think would be a good fit\, send it over my way. This could be anything in any media touching on: \n– gender abolition\n– prison abolition\n– abolition of slavery\n– abolition of the police force\n– abolition of the university\n– abolition of elbow-patched tweed jackets \nuntil this Saturday 14th July\, and the readings will be ready to download\, read aloud\, print and leave on a bus seat on Sunday 15th via leedsgerminar.tumblr.com. \nWe’re really intrigued as to how these might be linked and how we can establish connections\, strategies\, solidarity\, or not – so send in anything you’re interested in and don’t worry whether it fits. \nAs always\, the readings are not a condition for anyone to come\, no preparation is required to take part in a germinar. There will be snacks\, tea and coffee. \nOur venue Aire Place Studios is wheelchair accessible\, has gender-neutral toilets\, and is dedicated to fulfilling all other access and safety needs – please let us know if you have any questions or needs. It is free\, but donations to help support APS are most welcome.’ \n
