Oral History Association 2000 Conference
11 to 15 October 2000, Durham, NC, United States

At the Crossroads: Transforming Community Locally and 
Globally will be the theme for OHA 2000, scheduled for 
October 11-15, 2000 in Durham, NC at the Marriott Civic 
Center. The city of Durham is itself a kind of crossroads, 
where the rural has historically met the urban through the
production of tobacco, textiles, and music.  

Conference topics include the effects of globalization on 
communities and cultures; transnational communities; 
community history; biography and activism; ethnic and 
gender identity; "queering" American history; Latina 
feminist testimonies; trauma and interviewing; education 
and desegregation; ethics and the internet; electronic 
publishing; editing narratives for radio, video and 
multimedia formats; and the role of community scholars in 
oral history research.
