Sowing Resistance Propaganda Party
Sunday, April 23rd, 12-5pm
What is a propaganda party? It’s where we get together to make and share graphic and informational material that we can use in our organizing work. We’re excited to provide material at this event that you can use for the April 29th climate march, in your May Day organizing, and more.
Join us on April 23rd at Interference Archive! This is a time to meet people, learn about the work different organizations are doing, and pick up flyers, stickers, posters, buttons, and more. All this material is free to you, and we encourage you to grab a drink and meet some new people.
If you, or an organization you are a part of, are creating material like this, please feel free to bring some to share.
Questions? Send us an email, or visit our website for more details.

The Puerto Rican Movement: Political Activism within the Diaspora
Saturday, April 22nd, 6:30-8:30pm
The history of modern social movements in the United States largely overlooks the story of Puerto Rican activists and their organizations. Responding to this gap, a group of activists of the Movimiento Pro Independencia (MPI)/Puerto Rican Socialist Party (PSP) in the U.S. have embarked on a series of projects that chronicle political activism within the Puerto Rican Diaspora from the 1960s through the 1980s.
Carmen Vivian Rivera and José E. Velázquez will lead a discussion on their experience as leaders of the MPI-PSP in the United States and its relevance to current social justice and political resistance movements. Visit our website for more info.

Radical Playdate!
Sunday, April 30, 10am - 12pm
In this “now more than ever” moment we’re exploring ways to be more family-inclusive in hopes of growing our community. We would love for you to be a part of it. We want to make the archive and its events more accessible to people with childcare responsibilities, and also make social movement building a part of little ones’ lives as early as possible. Radical Playdates are a step in that direction.
All ages are welcome. We will have story time for little ones, and there will be stencil-making and drawing for older kids. We have paper and drawing utensils, but we encourage you to bring some, too. Also, please feel free to bring a book, a snack, or a drink to share, but it is not at all required. You are most welcome as you are.
If you have any questions, or if you have idea for specific programming you would like to contribute–a song, an activity, etc.–please email info@interferencearchive.org, otherwise see you there!

Finally Got the News: The Printed Legacy of the U.S. Radical Left, 1970-1979
Exhibition Dates: January 26th through May 14, 2017
Curator's Tour: May 6th, 1pm
Finally Got the News (a collaboration between Brad Duncan and Interference) uncovers the hidden legacy of the radical left of the 1970s, a decade when vibrant social movements challenged racism, imperialism, patriarchy and capitalism itself. It uses original printed materials—from pamphlets to posters, flyers to record albums—to tell this politically rich and little-known story. This exhibition also includes a publication, available for pre-order.
