1–2:30PM
Speaker Bio: My work focuses on political-economic change in Britain through the lens of grassroots, community groups, engaging with themes of everyday politics, mutual aid and care. I have conducted long-term ethnographic fieldwork with urban, grassroots food co-ops to explore their everyday practices and responses to the changes taking place around them ranging from neoliberal reform to austerity and now covid-19.
