Mental Health Under Capitalism with Micha Frazer-Carroll & Sophie K Rosa

'Uncovering the Archive' Youth Programme (18-25) presents an interactive event about Mental Health under Capitalism with Micha Frazer-Carroll (author of Mad World: the politics of mental health) and Sophie K Rosa (author of Radical Intimacy).

What does it mean to be well in a system designed to exploit us? How can we make the best of our lives in social, economic and political conditions that cause us, those around us and the planet to suffer? How can we resist structural violence - to make way for a world in which more of us can feel better - whilst staying well enough to keep going? Sophie and Micha will discuss questions like these, as well as opening up space for discussion. The second half of the event will be more active, with a workshop looking at how we might strengthen practices of collective care in our lives.
