An ecologically just future for personal digital heritage: three guiding statements - Archival Science Archival and cultural heritage institutions should take control of our personal digital past in our current global ecological crisis. To develop this argument, this position paper moves beyond the dis...

We ask:
📍Where is our archive?
📍Whose heritage are we preserving?
📍Who cares for it?
Our guiding statements—Take it down, Take it slow, Take it back—connect critical archival studies with ecological justice to imagine an archival ecosystem beyond Big Tech.

A mock-up of an open book- on one side there is light mint/robin's egg blue background and the text "The House Archives Built, Revisited" with smaller text in a typerwriterish font. On the other side there is a sepia photo from the 1870's of a Black man standing on a porch with his hands on a chair and his legs crossed in a jaunt manner.

There is so much bad news on micro and macro levels lately, I will share a little personal win. Here is a sneak peek at a very early dummy of the interior layout for my book "The House Archives Built, and Other Thoughts on Black Archival Possibility," upcoming from @wehere.bsky.social press.

Great review from a great scholar - and if you're inspired to check out Averting the Digital Dark Age, a reminder that you can snag it open access at muse.jhu.edu/book/123276.

My review of @ianmilligan1.bsky.social's Averting the Digital Dark Age is out in Internet Histories! 📖✨

It shows how the imaginary of the "digital dark age" saw a bizarre array of actors mobilise to create what are now known as web archives that are shaped by their anxieties & hopes for the future.
