Backup of Teaching with VHS Activism Archive
The VHS Activism Archive has three new homes as part of its complete de-institutionalization from the Brooklyn College Library, completed in Summer 2026, including the defunding of the Omeka site from which I taught for many years.
You can find our new website here: https://vhsactivismarchive.org.
The entire collection of ~200 VHS digitized videos are available on Internet Archive here: https://archive.org/details/vhs-activism-archive.
The permanent home for the VHSAA collection is the National History Archive at the LGBT Community Center in New York City (GayCenter.org/archives) where they were re-gifted in 2026.
More on their de-institutionalization from the Brooklyn College library on the website’s FAQ.
