ABOUT

"The Lowell Re:Offering — Conjuring the Ghosts of Lowell investigates an archive of writings previously published in The Lowell Offering, a periodical issued between 1840-1845 by women factory workers in Lowell, Massachusetts. Conjuring the ghosts of these women through their own writings, this Re:Offering is a critical inquiry into the roots of white feminism, labor histories, and abolitionist perspectives, unraveling the inherent paradoxes of freedom's conceptions. The Lowell Re:Offering — Conjuring the Ghosts of Lowell is a poetic script, an apocalyptic newspaper, and a syntax of intersected historical narratives, presenting a mundane and cyclical catastrophe of societal reproduction - resonating with the present moment."
