Primary historical sources, including images, newspapers, letters, and government records, are valued by historians for the picture they paint of the past. It is important to remember that the availability of primary sources also reflects the structure of our present distribution of power and equity. In this workshop we will examine the factors that contribute to the accessibility of historical information, and discuss strategies and efforts to bring to light the daily lives of communities that may be under-represented in the historical record.
