Listening events can be an effective way to share oral histories and create public dialogue around them. However, they can also be challenging to organize/ How much audio can people sit and listen to? How can we engage people in conversation, community building, and action after hearing oral histories together? This PSN call will be a space for participants to share what worked, what did not, and build a collective toolbox of strategies for organizing a successful listening event.
