Library partners with Detroit Historical Society on oral history project

The Detroit Historical Society is looking for individuals who lived or worked in Detroit during the 1960s and are willing to contribute their stories to enhance the narrative of what happened the summer of 1967. Their goal is to collect 350 oral and written histories from community members that witnessed, remembered or were a part of the civil unrest that occurred in July 1967.

The project is titled Detroit 67- Looking back to move forward.

Staff representatives will be at the Plymouth District Library at 2:00 p.m., Friday, Aug, 12, for a “How To” workshop and will provide more information about the Detroit 67 oral history project. The workshop is a drop-in event with no registration required. In addition they will visit the library from 1:00 – 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, Aug, 25 to record oral and written histories. The staff said they believe every story is important and no recollection is too small.

To register for an interview please call Detroit 67 at 313-833-7912 or email at detroit1967@detroithistorical.org .
