Come along and say no to help launch Sara’s new book, No is Not a Lonely Utterance: The Art and Activism of Complaining. Institutions make it hard to say no in them or to them as is evidenced by their increasing use of force against those who are protesting the genocide in Gaza. However hard it is made to say no, saying it can be how we find others who say it. No can be how we share our refusal to accept a situation, clarify our projects, and find our people.

In the book, Sara reflects on her experience of supporting a complaint about sexual harassment made by a student-led collective before she turns to share stories of complaint from different workplaces. For this event, she is pleased to be joined by members of that collective including Heidi Hasbrouck, Tiffany Page and Leila Whitley, as well as Akanksha Mehta, co-director of The Centre for Feminist Research at Goldsmiths, who will participate virtually.

Please note that this event will be masked. There will be some masks available at the Library, but bring your own if you have/prefer them!

There is an option to join us online - please email events@feministlibrary.co.uk to let us know you would like to receive a joining link.

Please note the event will involve discussion of institutional violence, bullying, harassment and hostile environments.
