Homeless Archives NYC


Homeless Archives NYC is a personal collection of news clippings, flyers, posters, zines, postcards, programs and other papers from protests, demonstrations, rallies, workshops and other art and political related events that I have saved since the late 80's as a squatter in the Lower East Side, East Village, New York City until the late 90's in the era of gentrification, of my participation in the housing and homeless movement in the New York City area. In the digital age of technology, I find I can pull these old news clippings out of the closet from collecting dust, scan them, photograph them and post them online. Housing in a human right. Squat The World.
