Spectral Justice Toolkit

This toolkit brings together essays, workshops, research, talks, and collective making by the Spectral Justice team. Rather than distilling social justice into a single theme, our collective chose to critically engage with our own practices, using reflection and conversation as methods of inquiry. Through this process, we asked: What does social justice mean to each of us? Our answers are shaped by different contexts, lived experiences, and cultural backgrounds. Instead of reducing our voices into a singular narrative, we held space for multiplicity, contradiction, and tension.

This project weaves together the practices of co-researchers exploring themes such as hauntology, alternative education, textiles, and more. Looking beyond the RCA, we learned from other collectives engaged with social practice. In a world that pushes for atomised futures within neoliberal education systems, we turned away from institutional boundaries and chose to learn within other third spaces across London.
