History Keeps Happening

A social movement historical archive, for historical reference purposes only.

The editor of this blog does not advocate current-day emulation of any historical event or statement republished here, nor does the editor condone any form of illegal or harmful activity.

The editor of this blog is opposed to all forms of oppression and supports equality for all. If an article republished here happens to include something, for example, transphobic or racist, you can rest assured that the editor of this site is strongly opposed to it, regardless of when it was written. The editor supports correcting the harms of the past in the present, as best we can, rather than covering them up by revising history.

This blog is a kind of spiritual successor to a blog called 'Keeping Time' that was launched in the early 2000s, back in the Geocities days. That blog focused on the history of Vancouver, BC, whereas this one uses a considerably wider lens. The name of this blog is also inspired by the title of the second album by the Amsterdam anarcho-punk band The Ex.
