Professor of Sociology Heather McKee Hurwitz was featured in The Daily for her work on archiving the Occupy movement.

“Funded by the Freedman Center for Digital Scholarship in the Kelvin Smith Library at Case Western Reserve—and led by a scholar of the Occupy Movement—the Occupy Archive preserves more than 1,200 pages of documentation and offers access to more than 400 digitized materials that help bring to life the movement’s massive scale, grassroots flavor and enduring impact.”

Professor Hurwtiz also has a book to be released in late 2020 that addresses what worked and what did not during the Occupy movement, the first movement to join in-person protests with online advocacy.
