Our reading groups are back Join us for an online reading group with V'cenza Cirefice, an artist, activist and academic who explores resistance to extracticisim within her work.
V'cenza will share a group of readings that explore the concept of extractivism, extractive logics and possible alternatives. We'll approach this through a decolonial, post-extractivist and feminist perspective, and take a look at how extractivism plays out in the context of Ireland.
To register to join the reading group, check out derryvoid.com/whats-on.
