This roundtable series invites us to revisit our understanding of the field of deindustrialization studies. Two sessions expand the geographic imaginary from the old industrial heartlands of Western Europe and North America. Another asks us to make gender analysis more central. The final session brings curatorial and archival knowledge into the conversation.
Friday November 19th, 10:00-12:00 (Eastern Standard Time)
This roundtable will showcase practice-based knowledge of museum curators and working-class history archivists who are in DePOT partner organizations.
Register here. This event will be held through Zoom. The event will be taking place in English, with presentations in French translated to English via closed captions. If you have any additional access needs please contact the organizer.
