The Southwest Oral History Association is a 40+-year-old organization celebrating oral history in and of the American Southwest. Our annual meeting will take place at the University of California, Riverside from May 31 to June 3, 2024.
We invite independent oral historians, university-affiliated scholars, undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, community members, and others to submit a proposal.
Proposals from interdisciplinary fields (such as American studies, ethnic studies, gender and sexuality studies, musicology and critical dance theory, media and cultural studies, and education) along with traditional fields (such as history, anthropology, and sociology) are welcomed and should include clear evidence of oral history research and/or offer innovative insights on methodologies and practices.
Please consider submitting an abstract that includes, but is not limited to:
- Community-based methodologies
- Oral histories as repair work/reparative archives
- Intersectional justice frameworks
- Cross-collaborative memory work
- Storywork/storytelling
- Digital humanities
- Decolonization and collective healing
