Margaret Cook, PHA (VIC and Tas)/ La Trobe University presents a case study of how historians can work with, not for, government agencies to make public facing history. And maintain their ethics at the same time.

One example: registering to vote (or other activism) would cause an alert to the local white citizens council, which would contact your landlord and have you evicted, leading to tent cities, like here, which includes video interviews: preview.memphis.edu/_migration/2... #oralhistories
#Historians #LocalHistorians Do you do #OralHistories? Curious to know if you use any kind of automated transcription software? What would you recommend? And do you have a favourite recording device?
I'd be very grateful for recommendations, thanks!

Elena came to the UK in 1955 and opened a chocolate business. She was one of the first people in the country to import Belgian chocolate. She'd lived there before the war and survived the occupation with the help of the Belgian underground.

Today I found some tapes of interviews my mum Gwen Ford did back in the late 90s early 2000s, she died in 2012 so it was quite lovely to hear her voice and laughter again. Also found a recording of my stepdad Gordon Ford giving a lecture to horticultural students. Wonderful stuff.
