Hey #library / #archives / #oralHistory friends!
I'm teaching a new #class "Solidarity Memory Work"
We'll learn about #solidarity #movements in allied professions (academic history, journalism, etc.) then discuss (1) how to actively #document and #preserve current movements and organizations, and (2) activate that #records already in #collections to motivate and guide contemporary organizers
Join us?
I was #interviewed by @hiringlibrarians about #noping out of #librarianship and constructing a new life in #community #memory work.

Pulling from my work with @SolidarityHistory, and amazing folks doing #solidarity #journalism, we explore the hows, whys, whens, and wheres (and sometimes why-nots) of recording our contemporary civil rights moment for the benefits of future organizers
