Our Picks – April 2024
- Lungs by Rakaya Fetuga is “a love letter to everyone unsure what they’re doing next, to the ones with imposter syndrome waiting to witness their power and to the activists I admire who ‘act as if it were possible to radically transform the world”.
- Oxfam’s new study in 11 countries found that communities and marginalized people most affected by climate change are frequently not consulted in national plans to combat adverse climate impacts.
- What We Have Become is a group exhibition including painting and drawing, photography, collage, film and sculpture, responding to Stuart Hall’s idea of cultural identity being formed from “points of deep significant difference”. The artists’ work explores the impacts of silence and erasure in archival records created and kept by the British state about people of colour – for example, the destruction of Home Office immigration records which caused the Windrush Scandal – and how the violence implicit in the destruction of archival records may be reproduced as a rupture in the sense of self, identity and belonging.
- Order your free Nature Friendly Planner from WWF, which includes three month’s worth of habit trackers to help you stick to your sustainable targets, and sustainable living tips to use in your daily, weekly, or monthly routines.
