CEDAR and a Community Centric Digital Humanities

Reframing History

In this episode, I spoke with my colleagues in the Consortium for Critical Diversity in a Digital Age Research (CEDAR). Christina Boyles, Assistant Professor of Culturally-engaged Digital Humanities in the Department of Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures (WRAC). Christina’s work explores the relationship between disaster, social justice, and the environment. Kristin Arola, Associate Professor in the Department of Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures (WRAC). Kristin’s work focus on the intersections between American Indian rhetoric, multimodal pedagogy, and digital rhetoric. They join Sharon Leon, Associate Professor in the Department of History and previous guest early in the season. CEDAR is a new research collaborative at Michigan State University. As you will hear, as a group we embrace the idea that CEDAR can be a catalyst to think about the digital humanities rooted in community engagement.
