Concerned Archivists statement

On January 15, a group of archivists released a letter to members of our profession regarding the Trump administration and potential abuses of information technology. They call themselves the Concerned Archivists and their statement reads in part:

President-elect Donald Trump has made a long series of statements and proposed policies at odds with our Constitution, our history, our system of law, and our international human rights obligations, and which are a direct affront and threat to justice everywhere.

You can read the full statement here and add your name if you are so inclined. Concerned Archivists can also be found on their webpage and on Twitter.
