3. AN ORAL HISTORY OF
SOUTH CAROLINA NEWSPAPERS
Remembering Eyewitnesses to History
CO-SPONSORED BY:
School of Journalism and Mass Communications
4. THE GOAL OF THE PROJECT
Our project’s goal is to
capture video and audio
interviews of some of South
Carolina’s leading newspaper
journalists from the last
half century. We wish to
ensure that the heritage of
the state’s journalists and
newspapers is preserved.
5. The Oral History is located on a website containing video and audio
recordings, photos, links and biographic information. In addition to
recalling stories from the past, such as the Orangeburg Massacre, we
are also interviewing selected journalists who covered significant
events to give their oral recollections and background information.
AP Reporter, Jim Davenport’s
interview page on the website.
7. Time is of the essence with
this long-term, ongoing
project. We must get
interviews before key
witnesses are gone. This
is important for future
generations of South
Carolinians so we do not
forget, and can broaden our
perspective by looking at
the past.
