Since 2001, the Oral History Summer Institute has been a biannual week of advanced training with a community of historians, artists, and activists. Participants learn from world-class projects and faculty.
This year’s institute, which will run from July 14-18 “Speaking Up for Democracy: Oral History and Political Change”, invites practitioners, researchers, activists, and leaders interested in combining forces to document and disseminate ideas about how oral history can serve to promote political and social change. Led by a team directed by Mary Marshall Clark, our presenters and facilitators will promote discussions in small groups based on shared interests and themes.
