Please join us for the Queer Oral History Workshop, hosted in partnership with the Concordia University's Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling.

The workshop and discussion will offer reflections on methodological and ethical approaches to undertaking queer oral history in research. How does one conduct oral history interviews with queer narrators? What is particular about queer oral history? How has oral testimony been significant in the figuration of queer histories?

This panels brings together historians Gabryelle Iaconetti and Liam Devitt, who use oral histories in their various research milieus related to queer labour and activism.

In-person capacity is limited to 40 people. Location: Concordia University, (LB-1019)

More space is available for virtual attendance.
