Abstract

Reports on a small exhibition that showed ca. 150 archival objects in two rooms of the Schwules Museum (SMU) at the beginning of 2019. In the first part of this field report, we describe the planning and execution of this show. In the second part, we reflect on communities and finding aids, and more generally, how identity politics intersects with archival technology.
