I really enjoyed watching him show on paper how he found the records, Thank you very much.
Interested in research skills related to the lives of FPOC. One of my 2 grandmothers comes from a line of free people in Hyde County, NC.
Always enjoy David Rencher's presentations.
Awesome! This presentation shows the level of persistence required when doing research. Taking us step by step was extremely helpful.
such a great through case study
Wonderful presentation taking a challenging research to its conclusion.
Fascinating! I had to miss the end so will catch the recording online.
