A Letter to Lady Gaga (10 min., dir. Uzomuzo, 2012) Framed as a thank you letter to Lady Gaga for her expressed support following Fukushima, this is a humorous call to join the Feb. 19, 2012 protest against nuclear power in the Suginami-ku area.

Open House 5:30-7:30pm
We would like to invite you to our open houses to personally introduce you to the archive and our future plans. Currently the archive is staffed by Josh, Molly Fair, and Kevin Caplicki, among others. Come meet them and learn all the ways the collection can be used and explored!
Additionally, we are also looking to develop a modest membership model where interested individuals donate a small monthly amount. This will allow us to keep IA open to the public as we develop our infrastructure. Regardless if you decide to become a member or not, our main goal is to share our work, and to spread the word that this new archive of radical histories exists here in Brooklyn!
