WE WON’T MOVE: A LIVING ARCHIVE

Trek Table wants to support and hold up our friends at Kearny Street Workshop (KSW) - as they prepare to launch We Won’t Move: A Living Archive, a podcast that brings radical Asian Pacific American (APA) artists, curators, and activists to the forefront. Once the anti–eviction rallying cry for the International Hotel in the 1970’s, We Won’t Move: A Living Archive features hosts Michelle Lin, Dara Katrina Del Rosario, and Kazumi Chin as they illuminate the legacies of intergenerational APA arts activism. Season 1 launches March 9. https://www.kearnystreet.org/blog/2021/2/18/we-wont-move-a-living-archive

 

PASIFIKA TRANSMISSIONS

Pasifika Transmissions, presented by the Pacific Island Ethnic Art Museum, is a monthly distance learning series that invites indigenous artists in our community to visit the archives and develop a video “transmission”. This is an incredible gift especially for  pacific islanders living away from home because PIEAM is the only museum in the contiguous United States with a mission to amplify the collective wisdom of the people of Oceania. View all of the artists featured in the series, on their FB page @PasifikaTransmissions
