Through hands on workshops we teach children audio skills to interview their own grandparents or elders in their community. The Grandparents StoryLab team then edits these interviews into sound rich podcasts. We produced five episodes of our first season with Rev. Malika Lee Whitney, from the Significant Elders Intergenerational Oral History Project as the associate producer. These episodes were produced in collaboration with the SugarHill Children's Museum of Art & Storytelling and IndyKids, a newspaper made by kids and for kids. ANNA's 50th Anniversary Podcast Series The Nephrology Nurses' Channel In honor of ANNA’s 50th anniversary, the Nephrology Nursing Journal began an oral history of ANNA, nephrology nursing, and the care of patients with kidney disease, interviewing past presidents of ANNA and other nephrology nurse leaders. These priceless recordings shine light on our rich history, the challenges our specialty practice has faced, and the advances we’ve made over the last 50 years.This series will also be of interest to nurses in many other specialties. While our focus is on nephrology, these interviews provide a time capsule of what nursing was like as a profession from the 1960s to the present and of how a specialty organization can influence the lives of patients and nurses.We hope you enjoy these invaluable and enlightening nephrology nursing recollections.ANNA's 50th Anniversary Podcast Series is brought to you by the Nephrology Nursing Journal.The first group of episodes was released during ANNA's National Symposium, A LaGuardia and Wagner Archives at LaGuardia Community College/ CUNY Marian Clarke The LaGuardia and Wagner Archives podcast explores the social and political history of New York City based on oral histories and audio recordings from the La Guardia and Wagner Archives' collections at LaGuardia Community College/ CUNY.
