The Fist is Still Raised: Slideshow

By Hadassah Damien

When and where

Date and time

Wednesday, March 19, 2014 · 7 - 9pm PDT

Location

Interference Archive 131 #4 8th Street Brooklyn, New York

Description

The Fist Is Still Raised is a slideshow and talk about the history of the use of the
raised fist in protest images from 1906-2013. Looking over the development of this one image tells intersecting stories about liberation, direct action, and autonomous organizing for revolutionary change.

The 1.5 hour slideshow uses the repeated raised-fist image to examine:

- relationships between movements
- historical anti-racist and civil rights work
- copyleft and resisting image ownership as a form of artistic prefigurative politics
- art as part of direct action and as an inspiration to act
- movements covering claims and ideologies including radical labor organizing,
autonomous/anarchism, indigenous peoples/First Nations rights, LGBTQ rights, squatting, anti-globalization,
- what it looks like and means for images to be "co-opted"...and if it matters.
