The Newsreel Retrospective features newly digitized films documenting the social movements of the late 1960s and early 1970s. These films—produced by the original Newsreel collective—capture the immediacy of grassroots organizing, from Black and Brown liberation to anti-war protests, feminist struggles, and housing justice. This retrospective marks the culmination of a two-year initiative led by JT Takagi and Film Archivist Draye Wilson to digitally preserve 60 early Newsreel films, with preservation work completed at Metropolis in New York City.
