We are recruiting 216 people at events in the community to look at different types of educational materials about genomics. We will survey them before and after to see if and how their knowledge and willingness to participate in research was affected. Then, we will ask 30 of those people to participate in a 45-60 minute interview over Zoom. This will help us to gather more information about their preferences and attitudes toward genomic research. We will be recruiting from a diverse group of people and offering materials in both English and Spanish. The purpose of this is to improve health literacy and willingness of participate in genomic research in order to improve health equity.

This research will examine the variable ways that people have used and interpreted collections related to the Greensboro Massacre in Wilson Library, and how they conceptualize their research in relation to memory, history, and justice. This project will involve semi-structured interviews with five to eight researchers, working to understand how the interviewees interpret and disseminate their findings from the archive. Afterwards, I will compare interview responses, in order to trace common and divergent themes. I will interview both academic researchers, as well as community historians and activists.
