Why are we commemorating Hiroshima’s 80th anniversary with new nuclear weapons? And why is the Govt backing idea of a glossy new PR campaign to persuade us we need nukes whilst simultaneously trying to block inquiry into impacts of nuclear war?

Oh, canada
great to hear about this, thanks!
Last Friday @emmamcdoofus.bsky.social and I took our class on Audience Engagement to @lulgalleries.bsky.social to view the archives of @leedsanimation.bsky.social and it was really lovely dreaming up ideas for workshops. Sometimes I really love my job.

Good to see this press interview from 1978 in Leeds Other Paper - one of the very few publications that’s ever understood why we prefer not to use individual names when discussing collective matters.
Good old LOP.
Good old LOP.
A great #AnimatedActivism exhibition opened last night at @lulgalleries.bsky.social - so here's when the first film by @leedsanimation.bsky.social made front page news in LOP in 1978, plus a two page interview inside.
Unlike LOP, btw, the workshop is still going today - respect.

It's good to see LOP cited frequently among the sources in Gavin Butt's excellent book No Machos Or Pop Stars (@dukepress.bsky.social) - he's also got this par that neatly puts the paper in context with @redladder.bsky.social, @leedsanimation.bsky.social, #LeedsPostcards, #Suma and all the rest.

And here's one of numerous pieces in #LeedsOtherPaper over the years about @leedswomensaid.bsky.social, this one from LOP 83 in June 1978.
