Thank you to the Posey family for giving us reason to take a break. We went to Lake Trillium. It was beautiful.

I’m waiting for the day that it will be ok for me to not work all the time. In the middle of this 4 day trip I still had to do a sketch, do a job interview, have a meeting, and do therapy. I’m not complaining. I’m just telling it as it really was.

I’m still working towards the right balance of it all. I still had fun. The kids had fun. And we did it. We went camping this summer. We’re making it happen.

Snippets from our presentation and the site tour at the @minidokapilgrimage in Twin Falls and Hunt, Idaho this past weekend. What an incredible event. I’m grateful to everyone who makes this happen, it was my first pilgrimage and definitely not my last. Special thanks to my co-presenters @amisachiu and @treesaw47 - it was an honor and a delight to spend this time with you and your family 💓

Thanks also to @silver_for_idaho and @leroyhayes1952 for being such gracious hosts and my new friends!

My full (work in progress, 14 page) comic and more feelings on the event are live on my “pa🌲on” lol! Woot woot!!!

Thank you to everyone who showed up & showed interest in/for You Are The Archive: Databases, Curation, & Tying Lose Ends, a workshop held at @iprc_pdx ! Most historians wish they could tell the future, but this time I actually could because I was right that the thoughtful collections my students curated were my favorite part of this workshop! These collections will be displayed at official launch party for the zine library searchable catalog, but I included bitsy photos for now ✶𓏲ּ꩜ .ᐟ

… here’s a little something I wrote in regards to “how did i get here?” & “what’s at stake?”: Historians are nothing without archives (perhaps just amnesiac journalists). Archives are the containers for the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves. The maintenance of an archive is a process where we’re constantly re-interrogating what we care about, what we don’t, and how we tell people about it. There are high stakes involved with telling alternative stories/narratives other than those backed by state power — libraries exist in the tension of being institutions/spaces that increase access to information that police are often tasked with censoring. Identity is ultimately tied to memory, and the spaces we maintain inform public memory — the zine library, as a community resource, shapes and preserves memories and stories that might not have otherwise survived. Ultimately, I believe in the power of spaces to change us as much as we change them, classrooms especially. And the best learning comes from captivating storytelling, and zines are nothing if not captivating.

[if the objects we create are prophecies of the futures we will inhabit, then the existence of the IPRC zine library bodes quite well]

stay tuned for the next iteration of thing thing that is close to my heart …. thank you for reading this & im out of here,
anthi
