Need the authors be British? I had a doozy of a time during my first Australian hospitalisation though I grew up in America. I’m an Australia Permanent Resident who has been mistreated in a well-known hospital, and would like to share my story in hopes of preventing future experiences to those who enter their doors. Thank you.
Hi BJ, the article above has a text-photo. I’ve had it converted to editable text as follows below. We must in future ensure all photo-text is converted so can be read by us visually impaired people, and others. Solidarity and here’s the text:
“INTERSECTIONED: Mental Health Under Capitalism
Call For Submissions
Hate capitalism? Wanna tell us how it’s fucked up your mental health?
We’re looking for submissions for a new zine on capitalism, mental
health and how they intersect with other forms of oppression. We
want to challenge the dominant mental health discourse, which
ignores the violence of capitalism and the effect of oppression on
mental health, instead pushing a regime of neoliberal self-care with
the aim of keeping you smiling at work. We want to create a zine that
will be useful for people struggling against these issues – your stories
are useful, your analysis is useful, your experience is useful.
Art, poetry and prose will all be accepted – but we do want to
showcase a broad range of styles and experiences, as well as making
the zine as accessible as possible. With this in mind, we’re holding a
workshop at Freedom Bookshop on Wednesday 25th January to share ideas, encourage collaboration and give further information.
If you want to get involved, email intersectionedzine@gmail.com or come along to our workshop (or both!). The deadline for submissions
is Tuesday 28th February.
We’ll be running events to raisemoney to print the zine – so watch
out for more info!”
Apologies, am I missing something on the screen? I’m using a screen reading program and can only read a couple of short sentences. Is there a more indepth article? I haven’t got a hangover honestly.
whether the matter concerns us directly or not, in different degrees we would feel all involved and responsible towards a sensible matter … we should react and act in solidarity, fraternal and … we would show our pain and dance and sing and paint the worries, the stress, the agony provoked and the physical loss and weakness …
