The Workers United - a TUC Library exhibition
The Workers United
This exhibition commemorates the 150th anniversary of the Trades Union Congress through exploring the extraordinary holdings of the TUC Library Collections – a centre for the study of trade unions and working life from the 19th century to the current day and now part of the Special Collections at London Metropolitan University. The exhibition uses the Library’s printed, manuscript and visual resources to explore the work and policies of the TUC since its foundation in 1868.

Since 2016 we’ve been mixing big names with the most inspiring grassroots voices and tackling topics that others overlook. We showcase politics as it should be: exciting, engaging and people-powered.

CfP: Criptic Identities. Historicizing the Identity Formation of Persons with Disabilities Across the Globe
In recent years, 'identity politics' has evolved as a controversial, but also prolific concept within political, academic and activist debates. A growing body of literature sheds light on different assumptions about identity as a concept that is as much related to expressions of individuality and subjectivity as it is to specific social groups, typically described as outsiders on the margins of society and the political mainstream.
