Oral History Association Conference Program is Out
The schedule for the fall Oral History Association Conference is out.
I am on the panel: Couriers of Justice: Print and Radio Activists and Social Change
Thu, October 15, 8:30 to 10:00am, Tampa Marriott Waterside, 3, Florida Salon 1
The panel is described as: In these papers, oral histories of people who founded newspapers, news pages, bookstores, and radio stations by and for marginalized groups yield insights into unexplored roles in social justice movements.
My paper is: “Social Change & Correcting Collective Memory: Women’s Page Editors in the Washington Press Club Foundation’s Oral History Project.” I will be speaking about the Women in Journalism oral history project.
This project will also be part of my upcoming book about well-behaved women in politics in the 1950s and 1960s.
