.@magdor's work relies on materials not held in capital A archives, but instead "queer-adjacent and queer grassroots archives." I was showing WGSS seniors ArchiveGrid yesterday, and guess which institutions, holdings, and therefore histories are off the grid for many researchers?
That's also a theory behind @zinecat btw. We want to build a repository for information on zine holdings from all types of libraries and archives.
