The Oral History Worker Collective will host a Community Call-Inon Friday, July 31, 2pm ET, for folks to share a bit about their day-to-day & week-to-week as oral history workers.

Oral history work is rarely just one thing. What does your week in the life of an oral history worker actually look like? What did you do that counted as oral history work (even if no one would know to call it that)? What skills, tools, instincts, or “tricks” did you rely on? What did you get paid for? What did you not get paid for? What is taking longer than anyone would guess or assume? What are you putting off doing because it sucks, or it scares you? Interviews, logistics, invoices, teaching, speaking grant-ese, emotional processing, tech troubleshooting, relationship-building, editing, care work, archival questions, neverending admin, et al. Tune in on a Friday to reflect on what your week’s been like –– without any pressure to sound productive! Register here.
