    No full text
    "The best way to learn history is to visualize it! Since 1998, Josh MacPhee has commissioned and produced over one hundred posters by over eighty artists that pay tribute to revolution, racial justice, women's rights, queer liberation, labor struggles, and creative activism and organizing. Celebrate People's History! presents these essential moments—acts of resistance and great events in an often hidden history of human and civil rights struggles—as a visual tour through decades and across continents, from the perspective of some of the most interesting and socially engaged artists working today. Celebrate People's History is a graphic history of dissent and activism around the world, and includes artwork by Cristy Road, Swoon, Nicole Schulman, Christopher Cardinale, Sabrina Jones, Eric Drooker, Klutch, Carrie Moyer, Laura Whitehorn, Dan Berger, Ricardo Levins Morales, Chris Stain, and more." -- Publisher's web site

    Interference Archive : Building A Counter-Institution In The United States

    No full text
    "A heavily illustrated discussion of the development of Interference Archive as a unique and enduring counter-institution rooted in preserving and sharing the culture of social movements. For over a decade, Interference has functioned as a fiercely independent, all-volunteer, public-facing archive—which doubles as a reading room, exhibition and event space, podcast base, pedagogical hub, and social center. Rooted in the simple idea that “use is preservation,” Hoyer and MacPhee lay out the history and principles behind Interference and what makes it unique, but also feature and platform a half dozen other archives doing similar work in the US." -- Publisher's websit

    Writing for the Revolution:Publishing and Designing Black Power Books

    No full text
    Books by and about global figures of revolution, including Mao Tse-tung, Frantz Fanon, Fidel Castro, Ernesto “Che” Guevara, and Malcolm X, were a signature feature of leftist radicalism in the decade after the mid-1960s. Translated into many tongues, sold cheaply as pocket-sized paperbacks, and produced by an assortment of institutions—from large publishing houses to left-wing presses and experimentalgrassroots organizations—they were one coil in the global circuitry of opposition. Books were a strand of this period's activism, one of the ways that nascent liberation movements exchanged ideas and strategies, and protest was advanced through print. But how were these books designed, and for what audience of imagined readers
