Archival Noise
LIFE histories project

-ABOUT-
Archival Noise is a micro-histories project. It focuses on the lived and remembered histories of the British Empire and its legacies. 

Archival Noise takes its cue from the Haitian anthropologist Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s Silencing the Past (1995) to push back against the silences permeating state, institutional, and corporate archives. 

Archival Noise is run by Henna Khanom, a freelance historian of trans-Atlantic slavery, the U.S. South, and family history.
