The Freedom Archives is a non-profit educational archive located in San Francisco dedicated to the preservation and dissemination of historical audio, video, and print materials documenting progressive movements and culture from the 1960s to the 1990s. Offering a youth development program focused on engagement with these historical materials and providing media production training, we also produce original documentaries and educational resources for use by schools and organizations as tools for community building and social justice work.
The Freedom Archive's digital collection at California Revealed consists of moving image and audio recordings from the 1970s and 1980s. The collection contains protest footage and interviews related to the Pan African Congress, International Women’s Day, La Raza, and San Francisco rock band the Looters, as well as a large number of audio recorded for the Californians of Mexican Descent radio series.
