Over the span of seven years, hundreds of people displaced by mass
violence told their stories to the Montreal Life Stories project.
From the outset, the project's organizers sought to develop an
alternative model to traditional oral history practice, one where
community members "shared authority" as equal partners. Together,
they challenged long-held beliefs about how oral stories should be
collected and shared. As a sustained reflection on this large-scale
experiment in collaborative research, Oral History at the
Crossroads has methodological and ethical implications for
scholars. It also provides a contemporary model for curating public
history, pushing the field in new directions.
