Protest posters. Zines. Labor organizing pamphlets. New York City libraries and archives house much more than books. Join librarians, archivists, and organizers for a public conversation about three local collections focused on social movements, and the spectrum of accessibility to these collections. We will also explore how these collections tell the stories of the social movements they preserve, and how these materials might connect to future works.

Speakers:

Jenna Freedman, Barnard Zine Library
Maryam Gunja & Jen Hoyer, Interference Archive
Shannon O'Neill, Tamiment-Wagner Collections, NYU

Moderated by Clara Cabrera and co-organized by Melissa Morrone
