203: Oral History and Documenting Immigrant Narratives with Fanny Julissa García
In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, I interview the interviewer. I get to talk to Fanny Julissa García about oral history and documenting immigrant narratives. Fanny is an award-winning Honduran American oral historian contributing work to Central American Studies. She has been active in immigration justice as a translator, legal assistant and advocate. In 2022, she received a National Endowment for the Humanities and Oral History Association fellowship to work on Separated: Stories of Injustice and Solidarity, an oral history and testimony project which documents the stories of parents and children separated under Zero Tolerance policy.
In the episode, we discuss: Fanny’s origin story as an undocumented immigrant and the impact of politics and policies on her life. How her previous work supporting the LGBTQIA community during the AIDS epidemic and supporting survivors of sexual violence influence her lens on oral history. Fanny reveals how her own desire to uncover and connect with her family’s stories sparked her interest in oral history. She also shares more about her recent project, “Separated,” and how she is amplifying, reframing, and showcasing the resilience, solidarity, and courage of families forced to leave their homelands.
You can connect with Fanny on her website and you can learn more about the Separated project here.
