About me

Dr Milo Miller is an LSE Fellow in Gender Studies as well as the course convenor for GI403: Gender and Media Representation.

Milo’s ESRC-funded doctoral research, completed at the University of Nottingham’s School of Geography, focused on squatting (occupying a building without the permission of the owner) in Brixton, south London. This research emphasised the ways in which squatting has intersected with anti-racist, decolonial, feminist and queer struggles and politics. More broadly, it documented spaces, histories, dynamics, political lineages and struggles which literature on social movements in England has overlooked; it interrogated and expanded how squatting in England has been conceptualised; and it spatialised the processes through which a range of identities, collectivities and political projects were assembled and negotiated.

Milo’s article ‘“We kind of created our own scene”: A geography of the Brixton Rebel Dykes’ was recently published in City: Analysis of Urban Change, Theory, Action. Previously, his article ‘Affect, infrastructure and activism: The House of Brag's London Queer Social Centre in Brixton, South London’ was published in Emotion, Space and Society. He is also the editor of Speak Out! The Brixton Black Women’s Group, forthcoming from Verso in October 2023.

Previously a Visiting Teaching Fellow at the LSE’s Department of Gender Studies as well as a Demonstrator in Techniques in Human Geography at the University of Nottingham, Milo holds an MSc in Gender, Media and Culture from the LSE’s Department of Gender Studies, as well as a BA in Film Studies and Creative Writing from Kingston University, London.
