Open to everyone, this Fight Back is in collaboration with Columbia University's Oral History MA Program as part of their public programming series exploring how oral history lives in places and communities around New York City.
If you're paying for more than one person, a questionnaire is needed for each person. Each person should fill out their own questionnaire. It's important that everyone knows what they are signing up for. Fight Back involves preparation and engagement, so please don't drag anyone along reluctantly to Fight Back. If anyone doesn't want to take part, it will ruin their experience, your experience, and everyone's experience.
Immediately after you pay, you will receive an email confirmation. Then, about a week before October 30, you will receive another email with information about your persona and what you'll need to know for the date. Please send a note if you don't receive that email within 5 five days before August 18. Most of the information that is applicable to everyone is also available on this website for you to read through now.
