Anna Robinson-Sweet
I am a PhD student in Information Studies at UCLA. My research looks at if and how archives and records can be used by communities in achieving accountability for state violence, particularly in the United States. Previously, I was an archivist at The New School Archives and have been involved in archival projects at the Weeksville Heritage Center and the Whitney Museum of American Art. Outside of the academy and the archive, I am involved in abolitionist organizing and make art that deals with the intersection of public history, memory, and liberation.
