Have you had a moment to check out our podcast? Audio Interference features interviews with members of the Interference community, as well as people directly involved in both the social movements represented in our collection and those which grew out of this history. Like all Interference programming, this podcast seeks to make social movement history accessible and provide a context in which to understand the objects in our collection.
This week, we thought we would feature a few of our favorite episodes. We hope you'll continue to tune in!
