Writing Family, Reconstructing Lives
In November 2019, Tiya Miles participated in Writing Family, Reconstructing Lives for a conversation about the past, present, and future of family history and kinship as historical methodology. This symposium featured historians who have approached family, kinship, and genealogy in innovative ways, and scholars who have engaged their own familial pasts, especially within the context of U.S. and African American history.
Moderated by Kendra Field.
Speakers included Nathan Connolly, Thulani Davis, Thavolia Glymph, Kerri Greenidge, Leslie Harris, Martha Hodes, Martha Jones, David Levering Lewis, Tiya Miles, and Dawn Peterson.
