<p><br>Dear Colleagues,</p>
<p>The May 2023 issue of the newsletter of the Society of Southwest Archivists, <a href="https://societyofsouthwestarchivists.wildapricot.org/resources/Documents/Newsletters/SWA2023v46no2-May.pdf" title="https://societyofsouthwestarchivists.wildapricot.org/resources/Documents/Newsletters/SWA2023v46no2-May.pdf" target="_blank">The Southwestern Archivist</a>, is now available. <br><br><i>A note from the editor: </i><br><i>One thing you'll notice in this issue is that archivists across the region have all been incredibly busy putting in the work. Every submission has some element of</i><br><i>industry, whether it is the providing access to newly processed collections, developing strategies in teaching with archival material, to creating new online platforms and databases like the research portal for border newspapers at Arte Público Press. But it is the feature article, Archiving Hate: The Horace Sherman Miller Papers, that feels especially poignant as we continue to advocate for DEI
and social justice within our profession. An important part of that conversation revolves around the processing and providing access to collections that make us uncomfortable or even angry. Benna Vaughan, Baylor University Archivist and Archivist for SSA, thoughtfully discusses the questioning and the challenges associated with archiving hate. It is in the strong feelings and honest discourse that we can examine how we can learn from these controversial collections.<br><br></i>Thanks,<br><br>Danielle Afsordeh <br>SSA RAAC Liaison </p><br><br>------------------------------<br>Danielle Afsordeh<br>Community Outreach Archivist<br>Butler Center for Arkansas Studies, CALS<br>Little Rock AR<br>------------------------------<br>
