All Work And No Pay
Join Two Way Dreaming and the Andaiye Women's Study Group for a screening of 'All Work And No Pay’ at London Museum Studios.
Two Way Dreaming (TWD) is a DIY film club showing anti-colonial films, films for a counter poetics, and films that test new arrangements of the self. TWD approach film as a sensorial apparatus that allows for ways of thinking, seeing, listening or experiencing the world otherwise.
The Andaiye Women's Study Group is a study group whose aim is to discuss the dynamics that have and do shape women’s organising practices in Lewisham. The group is part of Deptford People’s Heritage Museum a museum without walls tracing Deptford’s colonial history to its current struggles.
Andaiye was a Guyanese community organiser and revolutionary thinker in the Working People’s Alliance (WPA), a founder of the women’s organisation Red Thread and an executive member of the Caribbean Association for Feminist Research and Action (CAFRA). She was part of a generation of women asking how unpaid work in the community, with its legacies in the plantation system, could be recognised on a global scale.
'All Work and No Pay', was made in 1975 by the Power of Women Collective and Wages for Housework Campaign, and broadcast in 1976 by the community access unit for the BBC, Open Door.
