This book introduces some of the most crucial questions and concerns that have emerged from the ongoing oral history work of Voice of Witness. Since 2005, Voice of Witness, a well-respected nonprofit oral history organization has produced dozens of oral history texts and coordinated hundreds of community events featuring storytellers and educators. In 2013 Voice of Witness was honored with the Smithsonian American Ingenuity Award. People continually ask them how they are able to tell stories with an empathetic lens and this guide is their answer. It will appeal to organizations, students and activists who are pursuing oral history projects and is an essential contribution to the goals of sharing more authentic voices in the struggle for social justice.
