On March 13th, 10 am, @cmlbasel will host a SSM bonfire/ conversation that aims to scrutinize the Global North—Global South binary and collectively elaborate on discursive distortions, limitations of political imagination and fatigue that such reductionist binaries reproduce.

Last call to join @meduzalove and me in Amsterdam in July this year, to discuss how infrastructures destined to transform continue to fail us. But we also want talk about solidarities that develop through and with infrastructures, and infrastructures that are life-affirming!
