The OT will be launching their 24th issue, which has a particular focus on the politics of mental health. There will be a facilitated panel and audience discussion exploring contemporary themes surrounding the ideas and lived experiences of 'madness', including: relationship to the state & capitalism, divide & control, the role of drugs and psychiatry, its intersection with gender and race struggles and the possibilities for resistance and transformation in the midst of undoubted suffering.
Please note this date may be postponed to the 1st March, and might include Mark Fisher as a guest speaker, please check the next newsletter, or Housmans website nearer the time for confirmation.
