Crafting “Looking Back, Learning Forward”

Date: February 1, 2025
Time: 4 pm to 6 pm
Location: Bell Street Chapel, 5 Bell Street, Providence RI

RSVP

Join us for a community meeting to share, brainstorm, and help craft an oral history project to preserve the efforts we undertook to pass the Reproductive Privacy Act (RPA). We know this was a historic moment, but now we can come together to develop a process to preserve the stories behind every vote, every action, and every activist.

Join us for this meeting and hear from URI Oral History Lab Director Robert Widell about how oral history can help us preserve this moment. Get an overview of what we might learn about social movements from TWP co-founder Jordan Banick. Long-time TWP activist and former board member Tammy Brown will facilitate the meeting and create participatory interactive sessions.

No matter if this is your first event, or if you have been here since the beginning, Join Us! By working together to craft Looking Back, Learning Forward we can create an inclusive oral history project that captures the story of the many activists involved in passing this historic legislation.

We can gain a greater understanding of each person’s process, one story at a time, and develop insights into the civic process that we can all learn from going forward.
