Overview
Grant Description
Making Indigenous cultures public: A reconsideration of the Federal Writers' Project's life histories and state guides.
UNC Pembroke (UNCP), located in southeastern North Carolina, requests funding to develop a two-year summer program to promote undergraduate research by underrepresented students in the humanities (approximately ten per cohort) who will create a new oral history archive that will inform two public humanities projects: a digital story map and photograph exhibit.
The focus of the program will expand an understanding of the Federal Writers' Project's (FWP) representation of Indigenous peoples in the American life histories collected from 1936 to 1940.
