The Samuel Proctor Oral History Program (SPOHP) is a leader in promoting stories of Native Americans, African Americans, Holocaust survivors, refugees, immigrants, and diverse communities in the United States and beyond. In an external review of SPOHP conducted in 2020, the Doris Duke Charitable Trust noted that the SPOHP’s social justice research methodologies are the “focus of scholars and oral history programs across the globe.”
The SPOHP’s Challenging Racism at UF public program series highlights stories of students, community organizers, faculty, and others who have been on the front lines of the effort to create a more just and welcoming world. This public program series is supported by an Advancing Racial Justice grant from the University of Florida.
