(8/15) Research Justice stands in contrast to a colonial model of knowledge extraction – documenting grassroots information for university based archival collections, scholarly research, and mainstream audiences. #NCPH2020 #s49 #humanitiestruck
(9/15) Historical Society of Washington DC crafted an exhibit on the “official history” of the building that focused on the its preservation as an unqualified success. They also assisted with our project, providing images and information. #NCPH2020 #s49 #humanitiestruck
(10/15) Our historical interpretation arose from workshops with survivors of homelessness who identified the themes that shaped our research and exhibit creation. They defined what the Carnegie Library and its renovation meant for them. #NCPH2020 #s49 #humanitiestruck
(1/15) Community Engaged History in the Midst of Community Displacement.
The Humanities Truck exhibit “Downtown Displaced” evolved from a five-month long collaboration with Homeless Filmmakers Co-op (HFC) in Washington, DC. #NCPH2020 #s49 #humanitiestruck

(2/15) The project embraced a model of research justice. HFC defined the topic, the research questions, and the project themes. Through workshops, they co-interpreted the research, co-created the exhibit, and solely authored a performance. #NCPH2020 #s49 #humanitiestruck
(3/15) Community Based Research depends on fluidity, an ability to change course, ditch preconceptions, and explore new directions that have yet to be conceptualized. Be comfortable with perplexity and be prepared to be patient and flexible. #NCPH2020 #s49 #humanitiestruck
In 2014-2015, Hear, Here, a grassroots storytelling project began in downtown La Crosse Wisconsin. Undergraduate students under Beaujot set out to capture stories told by historically underrepresented and marginalized people. hearherelacrosse.org #NCPH2020 #s49 3/21
I got hired into a TT job while I was pregnant w/ a due date 45 days into my appointment. I'll never forget the enthusiasm of the dean who hired me when I told her. She worked hard on the negotiation process to try to find the most humane solutions possible for me #ncph2020 #wg5

We did the process over 8 months in 2018. We’d had inconsistent messaging in other interpretive projects, and needed a baseline for future exhibit and program planning. Lots of meetings—timeline shows how many meetings and checkpoints we had. #NCPH2020
