Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

A manifesto typically promotes a previous or new idea that the author wishes to make. A manifesto can be either political or artistic in nature. It can also reflect a personal stance on a contentious issue. The audience of a manifesto is generally anyone and everyone willing to listen and contribute to the discussion; however, many manifestoes are aimed at the oppressed and active political citizen. “Both manifest and manifesto derive ultimately from the Latin noun manus (‘hand’) and festus (‘hostile’)” (Manifesto, n.d.). Something that is “manifest is easy to perceive or recognize”, and a manifesto is a statement in which “someone makes his or her intentions or views easy for people to ascertain” (Manifesto, n.d.). Possibly the most famous manifesto is “The Communist Manifesto,” written in 1848 by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels to outline the platform of the Communist League (Manifesto, n.d.).
