Brooklyn Oral History Project

September 15, 2017 by Alex Chapin
Categories: News

The Brooklyn Oral History Project grew out of an “Oral History and Memory” class at University of North Carolina, Charlotte taught by Dr. Karen Flint. The goals of the course were to learn the practice of oral history, but also to preserve the memories of every-day life in the Brooklyn neighborhood between the 1950s and 70s.

This site contains nearly 200 hours of audio recordings of interviews with people who lived, recreated, or attended church or school in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Charlotte, a largely African-American neighborhood that was a self-sustainable town within a town.
