The Civil Rights Oral History Project, created and collected by UNCG Department of History professor William A. Link includes 71 interviews with 66 people, conducted between December 1986 and June 1990. Link personally conducted 40 of the interviews, while Kathy Hoke participated in 14. Other interviewers for the project were Kathy Carter, Kevin Costello, Wayne Jordan, and Mark Dawson. Five additional interviews are considered part of UNCG’s collection. Four were donated to the project by Greensboro News and Record reporter Jim Schlosser, who conducted them with Ima Edwards, Jack Moebes, Jo Spivey, and Geneva Tisdale between 1997 and 2001. The collection was digitized and placed online as part of a collaborative project undertaken in 2005-2007 to provide online access to civil rights oral histories at UNC Greensboro and Greensboro Public Library. Digitization was funded through a grant from the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro.
