Come to the Table I: Appalachian Archivists & Activists
Presentation #1 Abstract or Summary
We are at a point in our history where the papers and stories of many activists and attendant organizations from the 1970s onward are being shuffled to basements, back yards, and dumps. This breakout session calls "All Hands to Stations"--scholars, activists, archivists, and citizens all--to address the crisis and bring the records, stories, and papers into safekeeping.
