Black and white photo of a person touching another person's shoulder in a library, surrounded by video camera and a sign reading "On travail ici, on vit ici, on reste ici." Media event for a bisexual Guinean asylum seeker. Photographer: Philippe Teixeira St-Cyr. Concordia Special Collections and Archives. Stefan Christoff collection (C047), C047-02-06. 2019.

This exhibition showcases print material collected and curated by community organizer, artist and graduate student in the Concordia History Department, Stefan Christoff.

Activism in Print builds on Christoff’s research around creating routes for archiving the often ephemeral papers and materials created by community campaigns and grassroots activism in the city. The zines, posters and photographs selected embody three focus points of Montreal-based collective organizing: the interlinking of climate justice and Indigenous sovereignty, migrant and refugee rights, and the movement to support Palestinian freedom.

All the selected materials are a part of a recently acquired special collection (CO47) housed in Concordia’s Special Collections and Archives.

Activism In Print takes place in collaboration with the Social Justice Centre at Concordia University, CKUT 90.3 FM and Raah Media Research Lab.
