README for an archival copy of the digital exhibition The March.

ABOUT THE PROJECT/WEBSITE
This digital exhibition explores James Blue’s The March in its social 
and historical context. Although Blue was a critically acclaimed 
filmmaker, he did not achieve widespread fame in his lifetime, and The March
was note shown in the United States until decades after he made it.
In this exhibition you can learn about James Blue's life and how he prepared
to make the film. You can read about how The March and the March on Washington
contributed to the broader Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s. And you can learn
about how people responded to the film, from journalists in Oregon to
President Lyndon B. Johnson in Washington, DC.

ABOUT THE CAPTURE/ARCHIVAL COPY
This archival copy of the website was created by the UO Libraries Digital Scholarship 
Services Department to provide fully interactive, sustainable long-term access to a completed
website, given the ephemeral nature of the web.

It was created using Webrecorder, a free, open-source web archiving service created by Rhizome at the New Museum, funded by
The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the Knight Foundation and the Institute of Museum and Library Service.

The file type, WARC (Web ARChive) format specifies a method for combining multiple digital resources
into an aggregate archival file together with related information. It is used for web-accessible 
content in a final or archived state. 

WARC files are often compressed using gzip, resulting in a .warc.gz extension.

a web or desktop application for Windows, OSX and Linux.
