Abstract
Eskalera Karakola (EKKA) is a feminist self-organized social center in Madrid, Spain. The project has been compiling their own archive of audiovisual materials. There are mostly two kinds of material in its shelves: first, about one hundred VHS and DVD copies of short films and feature films, and second, close to seventy miniDVs documenting meetings, demonstrations, workshops, actions, roundtables and also interviews with activists. The recordings are mostly about feminism and lesbianism themes but also about migrant activism, neighborhood movements in Lavapiés, and some international events. At this moment, some of the activists involved in the Eskalera Karakola have created a group, to decide what to do with this material. This article wants to participate in and document the debates, reflections, and discussions around this archiving process, analyzing every step of the way and all the challenges and opportunities.
