Journeys and Pathways: Oral Histories of Contemporary Pueblo Women in Service, Leadership, and the Arts
An oral history project to interview women from
the New Mexico Pueblos which will produce teaching and public programming tools
including an exhibition, lectures, workshops, and a documentary film.
This project offers the opportunity to collect the experiences of the new generation of women who have had advanced opportunities for education, community activism, and field advancement. Our goal is to focus on the journeys and pathways of an intergenerational group of Pueblo women who have often been the "first" in their fields or have contributed to their communities in lasting ways. Using oral history methods, the project will interview women from the nineteen New Mexico Pueblos to document the voices and agencies of these extraordinary individuals who achieve outside their traditional roles while maintaining connections to their community lives.
