Whose memories are we collecting know and whose memories did we start collecting in the beginning? From the stress about collecting all those memories from before from Spanish Civil war while all witness were alive till the combination of hurry and different projects with different voices.
How have we been working with the sources in the archive, from collecting, to archiving, going through diffusion, collaborating with other researchers from other fields to making audio-visuals, books and films. What have we learned through
those experiences, what challenges, problems and goals have we had?
We want to look back to our different projects and realize how much we have been working with social movements, how much we have been involved in social projects and if that work is very different from the one we do with the academy.
Finally, we would like to connect all these analyzes with our work teaching oral history. How does our projects, our interviews, interfere in our teaching.
In other words, we would like to look back into the History of the AFOHSA and have a global perspective of the challenges we have had (related to the items above) and how we have solved the different problems we have found in our travel with the Oral History.
