SECTION 1



ACTIVISM




Activism consists of efforts to promote, impede, or direct social,
political, economic, or environmental change, or stasis. Various
forms of activism range from writing letters to newspapers or
politicians, political campaigning, economic activism such as
boycotts or preferentially patronizing businesses, rallies, street
marches, strikes, sit-ins, and hunger strikes.

Research is beginning to explore how activist groups in the United
States and Canada are using social media to facilitate civic
engagement and collective action.

ARCHIVE PROJECT




The African Activist Archive is preserving and making available online
the records of activism in the United States to support the struggles
of African peoples against colonialism, apartheid, and social injustice
from the 1950s through the 1990s.

The website includes: growing online archive of historical materials -
pamphlets, newsletters, leaflets, buttons, posters, T-shirts, photographs,
and audio and video recordings


personal remembrances and interviews with activists

an international directory of collections deposited
in libraries and archives


The African Activist Archive Project is collaborating with activists across
the U.S. who supported African liberation struggles to create this online
archive of more than 5,000 items. The project also assists individuals and
groups to deposit their collections in public repositories, including the
African Activist Archive collections in the Michigan State University
Libraries.
