Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Harriet Tubman (c.1822-1913)
American escaped slave,
abolitionist and social activist,
conductor on the Underground Railroad.
Isn't this art wonderful?
I love how she is emerging from the mural,
stepping out of frame, extending her hand,
helping the viewer enter the scene.
As if she is saying,
"Fear not. Have courage.
Come with me. Your freedom awaits."
