100% agree with Craig and appreciate the support @oralhistsoc.bsky.social showed my co-authors and I with this article, which was originally presented as a panel at the OHS conference last year. I’d encourage anyone working on oral history to join and publish in their journal: ohs.org.uk/join/

New article in Oral History by me, Sarah Mason & @livideehistory.bsky.social based on our experiences of research with Irish women: ‘Out in the open:reflections on researcher well-being and emotional honesty in oral histories of trauma’. DM if you don’t have access! Thanks @oralhistsoc.bsky.social.
