Civic Life Lunch: Who Tells Her Story? Hidden Histories of Historic Women

Why are stories of women, particularly women from marginalized  groups, so underrepresented in the historical record and modern media?  Who decides whose story is told, and how? And how many stories have been  hidden or lost completely? Half the History (HTH), a digital humanities  project co-directed by Tufts professors Julie Dobrow and Jennifer  Burton, aims to change this. Join Tisch College for lunch and learn how  Half the History curates, archives and shares diverse women's stories  through short-form biography, film and podcast...and how students can  get involved. Added bonus? Check out the brand new Half the History  exhibit now on display in the Barnum Hall lobby gallery. Read about HTH, Julie Dobrow and Jennifer Burton.

Lunch provided.
