I'm trying to build a literary archive that will eventually cover the majority of the globe and contain accurate representations of socio-political histories/analyses. Looking for help with sources.
I'm trying to build a literary archive that will eventually cover the majority of the globe and contain accurate representations of socio-political histories/analyses. Looking for help with sources.
I started this personal project with my partner after a conversation about how we would go about creating an "ideal" history class, and if we wanted to teach history how it actually is and has occurred. Given that fascist states have begun to actively eliminate any and all information they can that opposes them and their ideologies, I don't trust that many books and publications will soon exist as sources are razed and the internet is becoming increasingly dominated by corps (not to mention access to places like Annas Archive being fragile). So I'm trying to compile a list of authors (such as Walter Rodney, and his histories of Guyana) that I can archive, but this project is a big undertaking.
I suppose I'm just looking for advice/suggestions on where to find trustworthy sources of authors and how to filter what to acquire. Maybe there is no shortcut, but I'm hoping I can find a way to make this work a bit faster. Any advice is appreciated.
