Documenting Social Justice and Activism

Social activism is critical to the development of a truly democratic society. Rollins College Archives collects and preserves the history of the College as well as the unique and important stories of our Central Florida community. In light of this mission, the College Archives staff is working now to document our community’s experiences during the ongoing international, national, and local #BlackLivesMatter movement.

We consider it important to preserve individual histories in this unprecedented time. We are actively seeking both digital and print primary source materials related to current social activism and the concerns of historically marginalized groups such as African Americans, Asian Americans, Chicano/a, Native Americans, LGBTQ, disabled, immigrants, and religious minorities. Therefore, we invite students, faculty, staff, alumni, community members and others to share here about their participation in and experiences with the #BlackLivesMatter and other social justice movements for the purposes of documenting and preserving personal histories.

Any personal identifying information provided in this form will only be shared with individuals connected to this archiving project at Rollins College Olin Library. It will not be published, displayed, or shared in any other way without the express permission of respondents (see questions 11 and 12). By participating in this survey, you are indicating that you understand this.
