R.7. Special Research Projects: Gateway Transitional Families Program, 1995-1996.
Life history interviews with graduates and dropouts from the Gateway Transitional Families Program. The Gateway Program was authorized by Section 126 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-242, approved 5 February 1988), which allowed the Charlotte Housing Authority (CHA) to develop a program to help public housing residents become socially and economically self-sufficient so that they could buy their own homes. Public housing residents and people on the public housing waiting list entered the program and typically spent two years getting the education they needed to obtain jobs that paid at least $8.00 per hour. They could spend up to another five years strengthening their employment skills and increasing their incomes. Savings were encouraged through the use of escrow savings accounts, where a portion of the participant's rent goes into a bank account for the purpose of saving for a down payment for a home.
These interviews were done as part of an evaluation of the program, funded by the Ford Foundation. Six interviews were completed, three with program graduates and three with women who had dropped out of the program. The purpose was to examine thoroughly the lives of these women to describe their experiences with the program, their life histories leading up to the program, and factors that contributed to their graduation or dropping out. Only four of the women interviewed agreed to have their tapes deposited in the Southern Oral History Program Collection. The interviewer was Rachel Garshick Kleit. For more information about the program and its results, see:
Rohe, William M. 1995. "Assisting residents of public housing achieve self-sufficiency: evaluation of Charlotte's Gateway Families Program." Journal of Architectural and Planning Research 12, 3: 259-276.

R.10. Special Research Projects: Carol Woods Retirement Community, Chapel Hill, N.C.,
1998-1999.
Situated on 120 wooded acres in Chapel Hill, N.C., Carol Woods is an accredited, not-for-profit continuing care retirement community where residents live in cottages or apartments. Carol Woods opened its doors to its first residents in July 1979, with a second group of residents moving in November. These interviews with residents and staff members of the Carol Woods Retirement Community document the founding and early history of Carol Woods. The interviews were conducted by members of the Ad hoc Committee on the Early History of Carol Woods of the Carol Woods Residents Association. This committee was appointed to develop a history of the community on the occasion of its twentieth anniversary. Based on the interviews, Iris Friederich wrote Pioneering at Carol Woods. Included are interviews with residents Carey Bostian and Sandy McClamroch.
A copy of Pioneering at Carol Woods and a packet of information about the community are also filed at the Southern Historical Collection.

R.22. Special Research Projects: Julian Bond, 1999.
This project consists of two oral histories with civil rights leader Julian Bond by Elizabeth Gritter in November 1999. Gritter, later a Ph.D. student at UNC Chapel Hill, conducted these oral histories for a class project while an undergraduate at American University. The interviews trace Bond's life as an activist, from his childhood experiences with racism and exposure to civil rights to his tenure at the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) to his election to the Georgia legislature and finally to his protests against apartheid in South Africa. The interviews are accompanied by Gritter's class paper on Bond, biographical sketches, and responses to follow-up questions from the interviews. Also included is a copy of Gritter's spring 2006 article in Southern Cultures, which is a profile of Bond drawn from her undergraduate paper and these oral histories.

R.24. Special Research Projects: Tom Davenport, 1995.
Interview with independent and documentary filmmaker Tom Davenport at his home in Delaplane, Va. The interview focuses on four films produced in conjunction with the Curriculum in Folklore at UNC Chapel Hill that form part of Davenport's American Traditional Culture Series: The Shakers (1974), a historical overview of the growth and demise of the Society of the United Brethren of Believers in the last two remaining Shaker communities, Canterbury, N.H., and Sabbathday Lake, Me., recounted primarily through the reminiscences of several surviving Shaker sisters; Born for Hard Luck, a portrait of aging minstrel and medicine-show performer Arthur Jackson (Peg Leg Sam); Being a Joines, a look at life in a Blue Ridge Mountain community through the tall tales, comic local anecdotes, and religious narratives of John E. Joines; and A Singing Stream, a chronicle of four generations of the Landis family, members of the famous Golden Echos black gospel music group from rural Creedmoor, N.C. The interview discusses the troubles and trials of producing, editing, and releasing each documentary. It also includes discussion of the interaction among Davenport, Daniel W. Patterson (former chair of the Curriculum in Folklore), and Allen Tullos (former student at UNC Chapel Hill, who worked on all four films) as they struggled to capture their subjects not only through narrative and storytelling, but also through the prevailing traditions of song, dance, and religious belief. The interview is accompanied by five photographs of the filmmakers at work. There is also a brief discussion of the film Thoughts on Fox Hunting.

R.27. Special Research Projects: Archie Green Interviews, 1985, 2005.
These interviews include more than 20 hours of interview material with the folklorist, teacher, lobbyist, and activist Archie Green. The first series of interviews was conducted by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill English professor Robert Cantwell in 1985. Kieran Taylor of the Southern Oral History Program conducted the second series of interviews, which were edited for publication as "Shipwrights and Salmonbellies: How Archie Green Discovered Laborlore" ( Labor: Studies in Working-Class History of the Americas, Volume 4, Number 3, Fall 2007). While both interviews are rich in biographical detail, the Cantwell interviews place emphasis on Green's work as a folklorist and lobbyist, while the Taylor interviews emphasize Green's labor-related activities. The final section of the Cantwell series includes an address Archie Green delivered at the close of the University of Chicago folk festival in 1973.

and the Iraq and Afghan Wars, 2005-2006.
In 2005-2006, Betsy Brinson began a project to preserve the stories of soldiers and their families who were opposed to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Brinson, a member of the board of Quaker House in Fayetteville, N.C., located near Fort Bragg, the home of the 82nd Airborne Division, recognized the stories of these men and women were critical additions to the historical record. As the project evolved, Catherine Lutz of Brown University collaborated with Brinson. Helen Jones contributed photographs of many of the interviewees.

R.29. Special Research Projects: Providence Cooperative Farm, 1997-1998.
These interviews were conducted in conjunction with a 1998 master's thesis by Kieran W. Taylor, a graduate student at the University of Mississippi in the Department of Southern Studies. The interviews were intended to explore the legacies of the Providence Cooperative Farm, an experiment in biracial and cooperative living in Holmes County, Miss., that began in the late 1930s and continued to 1955 when several of its white leaders were driven from the farm. While not all of the interviewees were able to provide first-hand descriptions of the activities at Providence, many of them offer rich detail regarding African American life in rural Mississippi from the 1920s through the 1980s. The interviews with Henry Clark, the son of slaves, and James Walden offer especially vivid descriptions of farm life, folk medicine and beliefs, and race relations. Researchers should note that these interviews complement the Delta and Providence Farm Papers (#3474) at the Southern Historical Collection.

R.31. Special Research Projects: The Raleigh News and Observer 1945-1995, 2007-2008.
In January 2007, the SOHP launched an examination of the impact and influence of the News and Observer of Raleigh between 1945 and 1995. As North Carolina assumed its modern form, the News and Observer covered politics, the operations of state government and public-policy debate, serving readers across the state and region. In 1995, after 101 years of Daniels family ownership, the paper was sold to the McClatchy Company, the nation's largest publisher of daily newspapers. The SOHP's Beth Millwood and Joseph Mosnier conducted interviews with former governors and key legislative leaders; longtime News and Observer management figures, editors, and reporters; Daniels family members; and industry observers. Many of the interviewees were alumni of the School of Journalism at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Topics include civil rights; discrimination in employment; segregation and integration of schools; national, state, and local politics; Jesse Helms; journalists and journalism; the McClatchy organization; and many issues relating to the running of a newspaper. The News and Observer project is supported by a grant from the Josephus Daniels Charitable Fund of the Triangle Community Foundation.

R.33. Special Research Projects: Documenting the Gulf Oil Spill, 2010.
These interviews, completed while oil was still flooding into the Gulf of Mexico from the ruptured deepwater well, reveal the worry, hope, confusion, and commitment of Louisiana coastal residents during a time of deep uncertainty and peril. Interviewees put their current predicament in historical context, describing their lives and livelihoods connected, often for generations, to the coast and to the water. Topics include interviewees' evolving understanding of government, regulation, and industry; the coexistence of oil and fishing industries; and the importance of work, family, and place. Interviewees compare the oil spill to earlier challenges, such as hurricanes, and describe how this time seemed different: more daunting, less certain, and more out of control. They express frustration with much of what was happening, and, at the same time, confidence in the perseverance and intelligence of local people to get through the crisis.

R.35. Special Research Projects: Louanne Watley, undated.
These conversations with "Betty" or "Evelyn" were compiled for photographer Louanne Watley's series using the same names. They constitute more general field recordings of Watley's time with her subjects than formal interviews and consist of five tracks wherein speakers compare and describe Watley's photographs; discuss trees, memories of family and pets, and day-to-day life; and go to a grocery store and a liquor store where they engage with occasional passersby and compare brands and prices of items. Watley's photographs relating to these audio recordings are held in the North Carolina Collection Photographic Archives.

R.38. Special Research Projects: Institute for Southern Studies, 1970-1979, undated.
Sue Thrasher, co-founder of the Institute for Southern Studies, donated these interviews to the Southern Oral History Program. The Institute for Southern Studies was founded in 1970 by civil rights activists to provide resources for grassroots and community activists, scholars, and policy makers in the South. Throughout the 1970s, the Institute's staff conducted oral history interviews with labor and civil rights activists who had been involved in various struggles in the 1910s through the 1940s. They interviewed members of the Southern Tenant Farmers Union, organizers of the Gastonia Textile Strike (1929), participants in the Llano Cooperative Colony in Louisiana, members of the United Auto Workers who participated in a 1936 sit-down strike, Black Liberation theologians, organizers for the United Furniture Workers, and others involved in civil rights and labor organizing.

R.41. Special Research Projects: Tobe: Visions of Childhood, Race, and Rural Life
in Children's Literature, 2011-2014.
Benjamin Filene Director of Public History and associate professor of history at UNC Greensboro donated these interviews, conducted between 2011 and 2014. They were research tools in his effort to do a microhistory of a single children's book Tobe, which was published by UNC Press in 1939. Illustrated with dozens of black-and-white photographs, Tobe was one of the first children's books to feature depictions of everyday African Americans.
Filene saw the book and the story behind it as a way to open up rich issues in twentieth-century cultural and social history: the complexities of race and representation, visions of childhood, the history of juvenile literature, and the lived experience of rural life in the pre-civil rights South. Filene identifed the people in the photos (primarily the Garner, Herbin, Goins, and Shoffner families, who lived in the African American community of Goshen, now part of Greensboro, N.C.), the family on whom the story was based (the McCauleys, who lived in rural Orange County, N.C.), the author (Hillsborough, N.C., schoolteacher Stella Sharpe), and the photographer (Charles Farrell of Greensboro). Nearly seventy-five years after the book's publication, Filene conducted more than twenty interviews with people involved in the book (or the communities it depicts) and their descendants. These interviews were central to Filene's efforts to understand the book's history and its place in personal and public memory.
Filene shared his findings in an exhibition in the North Carolina Collection Gallery, "Where is Tobe? Unfolding Stories of Race, Childhood, and Rural Life" (October 2014-March 2015). That exhibition drew on the holdings of UNC's North Carolina Collection, which include prints and negatives of the book's original photos and nearly 200 alternate photographs, and of the Southern Historical Collection, which include correspondence between UNC Press and the photographer and author.

R.42. Special Research Projects: West Southern Pines, N.C., 1982.
In 1982, Nancy O. Mason interviewed residents of part of Southern Pines which used to be its own, predominantly Black township in the 1920s, called West Southern Pines. West Southern Pines was annexed back into Southern Pines in the 1930s, but these interviews attest to the longevity of the West Southern Pines community. Both black and white residents of West Southern Pines tell their recollections of the incorporation of West Southern Pines and the daily lives of its inhabitants. Topics range from segregation to daily life, touching on caddying for golfers, the character of local businesses, agriculture and aquaculture, civic organizations, families, the religious affiliations of residents, and the dissolution of the town charter. The interviews were the research materials for the book Mason produced at the behest of Southern Pines in 1987, housed in the North Carolina Collection, titled Oral History of West Southern Pines, North Carolina.

NewStories, begun in 2012, is an ongoing project of the UNC School of Media and Journalism. Interviews are conducted by students enrolled in media history coursework under the direction of Dr. Barbara Friedman. The series explores the life experiences of North Carolina media workers, whose career fields include print and broadcast news, photojournalism, web journalism, public relations, marketing, advertising and education. Included is a series of interviews with inductees of the North Carolina Halls of Fame. The interviews are biographical in nature, yet some concentrate on particular events or periods within the lifetime of the respondent. This series includes six interviews from the Fall 2013 semester (R-0845 to R-0849, R-0771) and seven from the Spring 2015 semester (R-0770, R-0772 to R-0777).

R.45. Special Research Projects: Moral Mondays, 2014-2015, 2014-2015.
Interviews conducted in 2014 and 2015 document the Moral Mondays movement in North Carolina, which began in 2013, in response to legislative changes enacted by the North Carolina General Assembly. Interviews are from separate documentation efforts by Jonathan Michels and Bernetiae Reed, but the two interviewers did collaborate on several interviews. Michels, a freelance writer, conducted interviews in the spring and summer of 2014 with individuals who are active in the North Carolina political scene and played integral roles in the Moral Mondays protests. Many of these interviewees were arrested for their participation in the protests. Reed a master of library and information science student at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and volunteer with the Southern Historical Collection conducted interviews from summer 2014 through spring 2015. Feeling that African American civil rights were being trampled by the legislature, Reed, a black woman, decided to join the Moral Mondays protests and was arrested during one of the demonstrations, prompting her to document the experience in oral histories. Other interviews by Reed broadly explore community activism and African American history in North Carolina from the 1950s to 2015.

R.47. Special Research Projects: Speaking of Feminism: Today's Activists on the Past,
Present and Future of the U.S. Women's Movement, 2014-2016.
Between 2014 and 2016, Rachel F. Seidman collected these interviews with current-day feminist activists around the country for her book Speaking of Feminism: Today's Activists on the Past, Present and Future of the U.S. Women's Movement .
The interviews took place in Chapel Hill, N.C.; New York, N.Y.; Washington, D.C.; Atlanta, Ga.; Minneapolis, Minn.; the San Francisco Bay Area, Calif. Seidman, who was at the time the Associate Director of the Southern Oral History Program, collected all the interviews except those done in Atlanta, which were undertaken by Rachel Gelfand, who was at the time a Ph.D. candidate in UNC's American Studies program.
These activists represent a wide range of racial, ethnic, and class backgrounds, and sexualities. Most identify as women; one interviewee identifies as a trans man. They include journalists, writers, non-profit leaders, entrepreneurs, labor activists, and students. They range in age from approximately 20 to 50 years old at the time they were interviewed.
These interviews focus on people who came of age during and after the 1980s and the "Reagan Revolution" era's backlash against feminism. The interviews cover how and why they began to identify as feminists, and what it means to them to carry on that movement today. Some of the topics covered include: their goals and strategies; how they relate to previous generations of feminists, and to each other; how the political, economic, and technological shifts of the past thirty years shaped their experiences and approaches; and whether they feel optimistic or pessimistic about the future. Some key themes that emerge are: the role that academic women's studies' programs have played over the last 40 years; the impact of major events such as the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and the economic recession of 2008; the influence of families and of girlhood friends on individual feminists; the impact of Black Lives Matter on feminist organizations; how the internet and social media have shaped feminist activism; and how feminist activism fits into individual lives and professional trajectories.
