Summary "Beyond Womens Words unites feminist scholars, artists, and community activists working with the stories of women and other historically marginalized subjects to address the contributions and challenges of doing feminist oral history. Feminists who work with oral history methods want to tell stories that matter. They know, too, that the telling of those storiesthe processes by which they are generated and recorded, and the different contexts in which they are shared and interpretedalso mattersa lot. Using Sherna Berger Gluck and Daphne Patais classic text, Womens Words, as a platform to reflect on how feminisms, broadly defined, have influenced, and continue to influence, the wider field of oral history, this remarkable collection brings together an international, multi-generational, and multidisciplinary line-up of authors whose work highlights the great variety in understandings of, and approaches to, feminist oral histories. Through five thematic sections, the volume considers Indigenous modes of storytelling, feminism in diverse locales around the globe, different theoretical approaches, oral history as performance, digital oral history, and oral history as community-engagement. Beyond Womens Words is ideal for students of oral history, anthropology, public history, womens and gender history, and Womens and Gender Studies, as well as activists, artists, and community-engaged practitioners."--Provided by publisher
