About Center for Iranian Diaspora Studies
The Iranian-American Digital Archive Project is a digital collection of material (photos, documents, letters, etc.) that documents the history of Iranian Americans in the San Francisco Bay Area. In addition to sharing some of the history of their Iranian origins and their immigration story, this archive seeks to share material that tells the story of This individuals and communities who have been shaped by the Bay Area and its unique culture. This project includes the collections of individuals, organizations, and movements that have contributed to and been influenced by the culture, history, and social movements of the Bay Area, and, the US as a whole. While this is an evolving archive, we hope to incorporate material from throughout California and the United States to narrate some of the untold stories about Iranian immigration to the United States. This project was made possible with a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities Digital Humanities Grant that was awarded in 2019 to the Center for Iranian Diaspora Studies and San Francisco State.
