Kizuna Project seeks help conducting oral histories

“The Kizuna Project is looking for individuals interested in conducting oral histories with people from Tucson’s Japanese community. We have posted several on our website and plan to add many more. But we need help. Taking a person’s oral history involves planning and understanding the social and historical forces that have shaped their lives. The interviews are filmed live, and only the interviewee appears. Interviewers do not need to be Japanese. 

We are planning an oral history training workshop by Zoom with Prof. Priscilla in the history department at the University of Texas in San Antonio. Dr. Martinez conducted oral histories as part of her thesis on US-Mexico Borderland history and has been working with the Tucson Chinese Cultural Center on its oral history program. If you are interested in taking the training and conducting interviews, please email Arlene Watkins at arlenewatkins@me.com. We look forward to involving others in this important and rewarding work.”

“Join us for an Origami Class, joined by the lounge kitties of course! Our instructor Daniel said this about the craft: “I’ve been doing origami since I was little and it’s always been a comfort craft for me. I’ve done a popup at my town’s Pride event selling some chains I’ve made and I think it is a very under appreciated craft. It requires decent fine motor skills, but people of any age can still do it. It has helped me greatly with building patience and attention to detail.”
