ABOUT

Discourses of Difference is an eight-day oral history remix seminar (37.5 contact hours) grounded in audioethnography and layered storytelling. Participants use oral history to examine how individuals understand themselves within broader social, political, and economic conditions and how those conditions shape lived experience. Participants conduct interviews, create narrative remixes across sound, image, and text, and engage in collaborative analysis.

The seminar culminates in a public Hearing Collective, where narrators and participants listen together and reflect on what has been revealed.

Professional development credit may be available with institutional approval; documentation can be provided.

Our oral history seminars focus on audioethnography and narrative remix. Participants conduct oral history interviews and work with sound, image, and text to examine how stories circulate, settle, and shape perspectives and understanding. Oral History Remix treats listening as an analytic practice and storytelling as a way of thinking about American cultural values, norms, and beliefs.
