History Positions Available. Apply Now!

We are looking for some  advanced grad. students to work as humanities facilitators with Scribe producers on seven Precious Places video projects associated with our Pew-funded Great Migration Project. The groups they might work with include Tindley Temple, the Christian Street YMCA, the Wissahickon Boys Club in Germantown, and the Bennett Home for Women and Girls in Chester.

Is a great opportunity for folks to engage in some very innovative and creative work. Field of expertise is less important than some experience with media and interest in community engagement.

We need to line up so folks pretty quickly–would like for them to get started in early September–so please spread the word.  Any questions feel free to call me– Charles Hardy at 610-429-3597, or Louis or Brittany Rafalak, the project coordinator at Scribe,  phone # 215-222-4201.
