Dr. Elena Foulis will give a talk titled, Latin@ Stories Across Ohio: Oral History in the Digital Age, on Thursday, March 3 at the University of Arkansas. Foulis will discuss how she draws on traditional elements of oral history methodology to collect historias from Hispanic and Latino Americans. She will provide practical information about how to reach out to traditionally underrepresented groups, how to collect and archive oral histories, and how to use digital storytelling and interactive cultural components — like maps, videos, links, and glossaries — to engage readers and provide context.

You can check out video interviews from Elena's collection, Oral Narrtives of Latin@s in Ohio (or ONLO), in Folklore Archives digital gallery.
