Description
The Archie Green Fellowship, offered by the Library of Congress's American Folklife Center, funds original field research focused on documenting the occupational folklife of contemporary American workers. The fellowship supports the creation of substantial born-digital archival collections—including audio and/or video interviews, photographs, and field notes—which are preserved in the American Folklife Center's archives and made publicly accessible online. The aim is to enhance understanding and visibility of the diverse traditions, experiences, and voices of American workers.
