History is the story we tell about how change happens over time. But who writes this history of change? How does the answer to this question shape what is written down and remembered? Often people who make history are not given voice in the telling. How would history be different if it were written with or by the people making history? With the people making change? Watch a program bringing together museum professionals and undocumented organizers to discuss who should write the first draft of history.

The History in Real Time: Undocumented Organizing program is part of the Tell Me What Democracy Looks Like series which is part of the museum's Undocumented Organizing Collecting Initiative.

The conversation may be accessed on the Museum's Youtube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqNdwJKn_Fo&feature=youtu.be and the testimonial videos with information about the Tell Me What Democracy Looks Like project and learning resources can be accessed here starting on Thursday, February 25: http://s.si.edu/tmwdll.
