Abstract:

Archivists play a key role in preserving and making accessible for research the history of violent events in social justice movements, such as the Los Seis de Boulder bombings. Four archivists, from institutions that hold significant primary source materials relating to the Chicano Movement, will explore how the deaths of Los Seis are and are not documented in the current historical record, the failures and successes that they have had in making this history available, what the profession can do better to support the history of the bombings and the communities that continue to be impacted by them, and current, related archival ethics that align social justice work with archives management responsibilities. An audience Q&A will follow the panel. Note that this is a partial recording of the session.
