This podcast is part of a larger project to highlight the work of the Andrew W. Mellon Fellows.


Fellows, led by Allie Alvis, worked together from across the U.S. to tell stories about the archival materials in their collections and how they prompt thinking about counter narratives in their professional practice. Here are brief summaries of these episodes.


The Pacific Time Zone Group produced the podcast episodes “Archiving Political Histories that Shape Education<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchfellowspodcasts.pubpub.org%2Fpub%2Farchiving-political-histories&data=05%7C01%7C%7C25da97adf3974e767de008db30ae5242%7C31d7e2a5bdd8414e9e97bea998ebdfe1%7C0%7C0%7C638157297522011775%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=RlUGJkcsdqgSXwO65RvyB481Zzu9frfaZSEcm2mvt0c%3D&reserved=0>” and “Disconnection and Accessibility in the Archive<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fchfellowspodcasts.pubpub.org%2Fpub%2Fdisconnection-accessibility&data=05%7C01%7C%7C25da97adf3974e767de008db30ae5242%7C31d7e2a5bdd8414e9e97bea998ebdfe1%7C0%7C0%7C638157297522011775%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=HWPj93J%2BpKojAZEOwXDjlW6ATaoZpCwEGKfIRUPjEIA%3D&reserved=0>.”  Guests highlight the roles of Indigenous advocacy, settler colonialism, disability, and accessibility in archival collections.
