I just recently became acquainted with an engaging archival organization located in Brooklyn. I as well as our team of the A&C Collective are excited to reference and post events and activities of this organization. We trust that you too will understand and appreciate the value of this grassroots organization.
The mission of Interference Archive is to explore the relationship between cultural production and social movements. This work manifests in an open stacks archival collection, publications, a study center, and public programs including exhibitions, workshops, talks, and screenings, all of which encourage critical and creative engagement with the rich history of social movements…..
