Slamming Doors

Slamming Doors. On Falling Out and Fighting Back in a Housing Crisis (2025) brings together writers, academics and community organisers against the backdrop of an ongoing housing crisis. Acting as a ‘user’s manual’, the book mobilises text and images, archives and conversations to unpack the work of DIY learning, grassroots organising, and how to record, disseminate and learn from collective struggles.

Slamming Doors explores housing struggles, community organising, and reproductive labour in Glasgow, highlighting how we document and share these stories. It reflects ongoing relationships with communities and spaces of solidarity. Writers, academics, and activists were invited to contribute, pairing their texts with archival imagery that has been instrumental in the research of these films.
