Das Projekt Soziale Bewegungen und ihre Medien richtet den Fokus darauf, wie politische Basisbewegungen und Aktivisten Informationen und Ideen miteinander teilten, bevor es das Internet gab. Erforschen Sie die Wege, die Gemeinschaften von Aktivisten nutzten, um andere Menschen in ihrer Nachbarschaft, ihrer Provinzen und Territorien, landesweit oder sogar international zu erreichen.
