  • 100. The Activism Archive of John O'Brien

    100. The Activism Archive of John O'Brien
    Dec 4 2023

    Since his early teens in the 1960s, activist John O'Brien has fought for causes he believes in — gay rights, farmworkers' rights, and dozens of other movements championed by progressives. Along the way, he has amassed a sprawling archive of pins, medallions, membership cards, whistles, recordings, and other ephemera that vividly illustrate these struggles for change.

    A 2018 essay written by John about his archive: https://paudspins.wordpress.com/2018/07/12/the-stonewall-veteran-preserving-the-peoples-history/

    To contribute items or support to the archive, contact John:
