Community Usage Agreements
Our oral histories are intimate conversations with people, primarily public housing residents, who have generously agreed to share some of their life stories with NPHM oral historians. By using this archive, you are committing to interacting with the interviews with humility, respect, and care for the narrators and the greater public housing community.
Not all NPHM oral histories are shared on this site. Similarly, some interviews only allow access and/or usage for people with certain lived experience. Please pay attention to the usage notes, as not all interviews that may be accessed have been released for usage. Interviews that allow usage may be used by anyone, but you must request permission for usage so that the narrator continues to exercise primary power over how their stories are used.
For more information about other kinds of usage and permissions, see NPHM rights and reproductions policy.
