About
Left in the Bay is an archival history project. We research, recover, and retell the history of people’s movements in the San Francisco Bay Area.
In many places, legacies of radical struggle are simply buried and intentionally forgotten. In the Bay, they’re often reduced to a caricature and put on display. The memory of everything from the general strikes to the Black Panthers to the gay liberation movement is sanitized and made safe for power. Our project hopes to help give this history back its bite.
