Our friends at Voice of Witness are having their second annual OPEN HOUSE FOR EDUCATORS. Using oral history as a foundation, Voice of Witness (the nonprofit division of McSweeney’s books) highlights contemporary social injustices by enabling people to speak for themselves.
The training is geared towards new and experienced educators alike (Grade 8 through college). Workshop participants will engage in an interactive process that introduces the skills, ethics and social significance of creating oral history, as exemplified by Voice of Witness and other leading practitioners in the field.
Interested in learning more? Join Voice of Witness for their upcoming Educators’ Open House on  September 27th from 5:30 – 7:00 pm. It will take place at Scholar Match which is located on 849 Valencia Street.Â
