COMING SOON: As the public debates around history grow louder, it seems there’s a gap between how history practitioners understand their work and what the public thinks history is. We need a more productive public conversation about history. But how do we get on the same page? Over the course of this series, we’ll be speaking to historians, history communicators, and educators from around the country about the language we use to communicate history to the public.
Hosted by Christy Coleman and Jason Steinhauer, this six-part series delves deep into a new, research-backed communication framework developed by FrameWorks Institute in partnership with the American Association for State and Local History, the National Council on Public History, and the Organization for American History. Reframing History is produced by Better Lemon Creative Audio for AASLH.
Our guests on this series are (in order of appearance): Lacey Wilson, John Dichtl, Theresa L. Miller, William Convery, Stacey Watson, Sam Wineburg, Hasan Kwame Jeffries, Heather Bruegl, Estevan Rael-Galvez, Susan Ferentions, Niya Bates, Eric Liu, Melanie Adams, Caroline Klibanoff, Steve Murray, and Jennifer Ortiz.
