Terraformed

Speaker: Joy White
‘Forty years of neoliberalism on either side of the Atlantic have embedded nihilistic, consumerist values as though that’s the only way for society to move forward. ... Terraformed is my attempt to connect the dots, locate the struggles, the wins and the losses of young Black lives within a structural, institutional and historical context. ... While there’s little doubt that young Black lives are lived with and through levels of disadvantage, we can’t underestimate the hope that comes from creativity in all its forms. I therefore consider how hope for the future & a better world isn’t just desirable: it is essential to our survival.’ Joy’s book will be on sale tonight.
