Group 1: Vote for Our Lives

Collected by: University of Maryland, iSchool

Archived since: Apr, 2018

Description:

This project seeks to document the intersection of the March for Our Lives and voter registration and engagement. While we document the event itself and responses to it, we focus on the ways in which March for Our Lives organizers, speakers, and participants used the event to advocate for change through the democratic process, specifically voter registration and rallying young people to use their votes to influence lawmakers and gun policy. This work was conducted by three MLIS students (Emily Flint, Adam Gray, Andrew Staton) for a graduate class, LBSC785: Documentation, Collection, and Appraisal of Records, taught by Professor Ricardo Punzalan and Amy Wicker, at the University of Maryland, College Park, in Spring 2018.
