The Blackivists, a collective of professionally trained Black archivists in Chicago, partner with institutions and community groups to help preserve the city's Black cultural heritage as well as model reparative approaches to archives and archiving. Daniel talks with Ashley Farmer, who teamed up with the Blackivists to produce the AHR History Lab piece "Toward an Archival Reckoning" for the June 2022 issue. One of the collective—Stacie Williams—joins Ashley to talk about the group's work. And Adom Getachew checks in to set this project in the context of a larger arc of upcoming Lab entries on the theme of "engaged history."
