Lumpen #16: Class and Care. We’re exploring Class and Care in all its messy, knotty, vital, contradictory and highly skilled forms. We’re inviting you to interpret this however makes sense to you — through personal story, critique, history, imagination, grief, fury, love, or all of the above.

Marijam's piece is taken from the latest edition of Lumpen: Class and Migration, available online or in print: www.theclassworkproject.com/shop-1

How does CWP define 'class'?

Like if you think this post wasn't as juicy as you'd thought it would be.

Like if you think Amy's baby is cute.

That's how our inbox has looked for the past 24 or so hours since we released Lumpen #14. With hundreds of copies sold, it is looking like it may be the best-selling one. We're absolutely chuffed with it. Thank you for your support, everyone!

The first Lumpen of 2025 is here!

Co-edited with the @wcca.bsky.social , Lumpen #14 discusses Just Transition as a model for shifting to a sustainable and fair economy.

Human-made climate change and environmental destruction are the biggest threats to our future and the planet as we know it.

New Lumpen is coming next week or shortly after, depending on how fast the printers are.

It will discuss the concept of just transition as seen by working-class and poor people. It's gonna be very international.

It's co-edited by @wcca.bsky.social

Cover by Mangal Media.

Pass it on.

A sneak peek of what to expect from the upcoming Lumpen, it is now being put together. we think it will be a banger!

This issue wouldn't be possible without the work of @wcca.bsky.social: really, we're only assisting here.

You will be able to get it early January and you don't want to miss out :)
