Protestory

PROTESTORY! shows the diversity of materials that have been created in the context of youth protests over the past decades and still shape our impression of these protests today. Users can discover the exciting world of past youth protest cultures through various aesthetic-narrative mini-applications. The historical materials, all from the holdings of the Archive of the Workers’ Youth Movement, serve to acquire knowledge and provide inspiration at the same time. It is also intended to encourage users to perceive archives as a place for historiography and the targeted collection of current youth protests.
