On Friday it was ruled that the proscription of Palestine Action was unlawful. Here is our short film about that day, the 3rd film in our REQUIEM FOR PROTEST series charting the 'Lift The Ban' campaign by @defendourjuries.bsky.social. This piece is a fugue composed by @kimhalliday.bsky.social

🎥 The first UK cinema screening of THE CONSPIRACISTS will be at Hebden Bridge Picturehouse on 21 Feb. 🎟️ bit.ly/TC-Hebden. It will be followed by a Q&A with the director, moderated by Scott Archer Patient. Get ready, strap yourselves in, this film is quite a ride!

The Epstein files have added a whole other mind-bending layer to our film The Conspiracists. Read Liz Smith's latest Substack examing the film through this new lens: open.substack.com/pub/lizsmith... Screenings info: linktr.ee/theconspiracists

This is how conspiracies become “confirmed” inside conspiratorial belief systems. Not because new evidence appears, but because an existing detail is reassigned meaning. In this case, a restaurant called “Cannibal,” mentioned in connection to Epstein’s chef in the recent document release.

Liz has been following the story of the "Lift The Ban" campaigners arrested and charged under terrorism laws in the UK. Here is her latest article after witnessing some of the plea hearings. @defendourjuries.bsky.social

We've made a second episode of Requiem For Protest. This time we documented what happened outside the RCJ on the first day of the judicial review of the proscription of Palestine Action. Once again 100s of people taking part in the @defendourjuries.bsky.social Lift The Ban campaign were arrested.

Yes it’s true, there’s a book and a film of The Conspiracists! We’re looking forward to the U.K. theatrical release of the film in the new year. The book release is Jan 6. You can pre-order it now!

The book draws from four years of research and lived relationships; the film offers a visual counterpart to that work. Used together, they give readers and viewers a clearer sense of how belonging, belief, and extremism intersect, useful for book clubs, classrooms, and discussion groups.

A young woman in the UK died from a treatable cancer after rejecting medical care. Her mother—a prominent conspiracist & anti-vaxxer—pushed “natural” remedies instead. Now her brothers are speaking out about the real-world toll of conspiracies and the families they destroy.

Our protest rights are under attack in the UK, in a very insidious way.
