Slamming Doors

'Slamming Doors' brings together writers, academics and community organisers to reflect on housing justice, community organising and feminist labour. Blending essays, interviews and archival materials, the book acts as a manual, an archive and a meeting place, asking, in the words of Lola Olufemi, ‘what can we build from this?’ Rooted in the histories of housing and community activism in Glasgow, the publication draws on decades of grassroots organising, self-build projects, and feminist housing movements. It reflects on DIY learning, reproductive labour, and mutual aid, considering how art, research, and activism can redistribute resources, knowledge, and care. 'Slamming Doors' is not a static artist monograph. It is a book that functions as a manual, an archive, and a meeting place, bringing together text, image, and conversation to explore how collective struggles are recorded, shared and kept alive.
