Digna Rabia: Archiving our stories, Producing oral history journals of Latin American migrants

Now on its fourth volume, the Digna Rabia Undergraduate Journal in Chicanx Studies archives the student oral history projects produced in a course taught by Dr. Pablo Gonzalez on Mexican and Central American migration. First assigned as a term paper for students to document their families’ migration stories, the journal now centers the knowledge production and lived experiences of our migrant families. This presentation discusses the creation of the digital journal, the inclusion of multimedia forms like podcasting and augmented reality to storytell, and the power of preserving and archiving the migration stories of Latin American migrants by UC Berkeley students.
