Practical Approaches to Ethical Oral History | Presented by the University of Manitoba
Although oral history can be used as a tool for democratizing the research process and history, that is not always the reality of how it is used. Research, co-production and sharing are dynamic processes dependent on social relations that can be used either to transform or to maintain the status quo.
Dr. Pauline Tennent, Manager of the Centre for Human Rights Research at the University of Manitoba, highlights anti-colonial & unsettling research methods that:
- Disrupt Colonialism and paternalistic relations
- Make space and foregrounds voices, ontologies and epistemologies that have been previously excluded
- Incorporate lived / living experience and narrative
