We have occupied the top floor of Bramber House, University of Sussex, Brighton. There are 106 of us.

The decision to occupy has been taken after weeks of concerted campaigning during which the university management have repeatedly failed to take away the threat of compulsory redundancies and course cuts.

We recognise that an attack on education workers is an attack on us.

Crises tend to generate apocalyptic dreams and nightmares. Through a reappraisal of 20th century anti-capitalist thought, Benjamin Noys urges us to critically re-think how such an apocalyptic tone operates within radical analyses of the current crisis

Jack Sheppard and his Double: A response to Peter Linebaugh.
Anja Kirschner & David Panos

Firstly we insist that our interview in Variant was fundamentally supporting Peter Linebaugh's work. We have been greatly inspired by his writing and owe him a debt for many of the themes explored in our films (our film Polly II paid tribute to his work with Marcus Rediker on piracy in the closing credits). It is not just the research he has done in bringing these histories to light that we admire, but also his sense of political commitment.
