Interference Archive is an all-volunteer archive of social movement cultural ephemera in Brooklyn, New York. We use our collection to animate histories of people mobilizing for social transformation, and we engage with our materials in ways that build community. Our presentation will consist of a 10-minute video featuring volunteers who discuss how the archive intentionally disrupts hierarchical power dynamics through the content of the collection, organizational structure, and archival practices. Two volunteers facilitate the discussion that follows.
