Oral History Materials
The Oral History Materials digital collection contains interviews conducted and acquired by the Oral History Unit of the State Archives of North Carolina.
Oral histories are long-form conversations that capture unique insights and perspectives on the people, places, and events that have shaped, and continue to shape, our lives and our state. They capture history on a personal level, fill gaps in the historical record, and add context and meaning that is otherwise difficult to capture in traditional records and documents.
Explore oral history projects here, including:
- She Changed the World: NC Women Breaking Barriers
- American Indian Heritage Commission oral history project
- Facing East 158 Voices: Warren County and the town of Macon
- School Integration and Desegregation
This website contains descriptions and, where possible, transcriptions of oral history interviews. Visit the Internet Archive to listen to recordings from this collection.
