sisters such devoted sisters

Notes

Set in Glasgow’s grimly surreal underworld, this is a funny, soulful and deeply unusual coming-of-age story, tainted by the memory of a shocking and lonely crime.

Care Zine

Artist/Author: Lu Williams and Funa Ye | Reference: P4309 | Type: Publication

“This new work ‘Care Zine’ came from conversations about our practises, realising at the heart of it we are centred on care for our communities in an ever precarious and changing world. Through zine making as self expression and a cathartic art form, we realised participants benefited from the space to make and play and that play and freedom were a great part of caring from each other."

Fearing the Black Body

Artist/Author: Sabrina Strings | Reference: P4301 | ISBN: 9781479886753 | Type: Publication

Sabrina Strings weaves together an eye-opening historical narrative ranging from the Renaissance to the current moment, analyzing important works of art, newspaper and magazine articles, and scientific literature and medical journals–where fat bodies were once praised–showing that fat phobia, as it relates to black women, did not originate with medical findings, but with the Enlightenment era belief that fatness was evidence of “savagery” and racial inferiority.
Fearing the Black Body argues that the contemporary ideal of slenderness is, at its very core, racialized and racist. An important and original work, it reveals that fat phobia isn’t about health at all, but rather a means of using the body to validate race, class, and gender prejudice.
