UMMA exhibit outlines history of protests, anarchism and political dissent in America

From The Michigan Daily by Audrey Shabelski

About 150 Ann Arbor community members gathered at the University of Michigan Museum of Art Saturday evening to hear a discussion between Julie Herrada, the curator of the Joseph A. Labadie Collection, and Julie Ault, a writer and artist specializing in the retellings of history. They detailed their collaboration on the new exhibit, “American Sampler: Activating the Archive.”

There’s been a bit of discussion recently about forming a network of radical libraries and archives. As a way towards this, the 1 in 12 Library Collective, based in the 1 in 12 Club in Bradford, would like to invite you all to our 30th Birthday party on Saturday 24th January 2026.

Back to books, back to ideas

From Anarchist Libraries Network

Back to the roots, back to material solidity. To real discussions, physical spaces of confrontation before connection. Faced with a reality that crumbles between our fingers, with a memory of what anarchist thought once was — now fading in the face of media doublethink and the sweet constraint of new communication channels — the only choice was to rethink the conflicting relationship between what this world imposes — digitization and the dematerialization of relationships — and what we carry in our hearts and refuse to abandon — the rejection of consensus and the love for unique, sensual encounters between individuals struggling against this existing order.
