I spent a great afternoon in November at the Hackney Archives’ “Occupy The Archives” event as part of the Antiuniversity series.
I was very impressed with the dedication of the staff, the contributions of other attendees and the general atmosphere. It was great to meet some people who’d seen this site too.
There was perhaps predictably too much stuff to take in, but my eye was drawn to a particular file which included notes, minutes and letters from various protest groups – many of which had postal addresses courtesy of Centerprise:

This material has been used to update a previous post on Centerprise’s radical mailboxes.
If I get another spare afternoon then I’ll be straight back to Hackney Archives to do some more digging for this site…
The archives do good twitter too, if that is your thing: @archiveshackney
In the meantime, drop me a line or leave a comment below if you were involved with any of the above – particularly the Percy Ingle campaign.
