Erin's joined by Dr. Ariel Beaujot (University of Wisconsin, La Crosse) to talk about her postmodern heritage project, Hear, Here. Hear, Here began in La Crosse in 2015 but, under the direction of Dr. Michelle Hamilton (Western University), expanded to London, ON in 2018. Unlike your average walking tour, Hear, Here uses oral histories to make hidden histories visible on the streets of gentrifying/gentrified neighbourhoods.
