TRANSNATIONAL ANTI-COLONIAL TRANS*FEMINIST COUNTER CLOUD ACTION DAY
Open self-study afternoon at the H&D studio and online
H&D joins the de Transnational, Anti-Colonial, Trans*Feminist Counter Cloud Action Day on Friday 8 March 2024 by opening our doors (physical and virtual) for a self-directed study afternoon. We will read up on and discuss the relationship between Cloud platforms with the military-technological complex enabling the genocide in Palestine. We will share some references, thoughts and suggestions for action, and invite you to join us online or at the H&D studio to dedicate some time to self-directed study on these pressing matters.
H&D is an endorser of Tecnosandia’s declaration of solidarity with Palestine.
