Radical Sunday School: Mad Pride! Psychiatric Abolition as a Movement

Sunday 26 May 2024, Radical Sunday School: Mad Pride! Psychiatric Abolition as a Movement. From 17:30 till 20:00.

Are you sick of having your personality traits be labeled symptoms?
Do you think normal reactions to abmnormal situations are NOT “disorders”?
How would so called “mental illnesses” look without the societal stigma around them?
Do you think it’s the system that’s sick, not you?
Well then come to discuss this (and more!)

The formal education system affects us all. Not only are we forced to attend schools growing up, but academic research shapes our governments, our news, and how we view the world around us. As much as many of us want to believe in the promise of institutional education, the sad fact is that our schools and universities are undemocratic and elitist. They perpetuate inequalities instead of giving people the tools to fight them. This world is fucked.

Here at Radical Sunday School, though, we know that another world is possible. Everyone should be able to direct their own learning, to grow together with their communities, and to live as though they’re already free. There are countless examples of movements already putting these ideas into practice. This collective is trying to follow in their footsteps, organizing to explore new ways of learning based on principles of autonomy, mutual aid, and egalitarianism.

This is not intended to be a course that you would have to follow all the way through. Jump in and out whenever you like. Sessions will be held every Sunday.
