Rethinking Community Development
The Burning Work project aims to rethink community development through an intergenerational collaboration between Windrush Defenders Legal C.I.C, Channels Research Group and multiple collaborators based within, between and beyond the borders of the United Kingdom (UK). This work involves techniques of archiving, investigation, design and the construction of alternative public forums, as spaces to interpret and contest the post-colonial architecture of UK immigration law enforcement, the racialised enclosure of the UK Criminal Justice System, and disparities recursively evidenced in the data infrastructure of socio-economic formations.
