A Tulane Global Humanities Center Monday Lunch Event

Join Dr. Nikki Brown, an award-winning historian and digital humanities scholar, as she shares how oral history, photography, and emerging technologies can recover stories of diaspora, migration, and resistance. Drawing on her projects ranging from Afro-Turkish communities to post-Katrina New Orleans, she shares how scholars can use humanities and digital tools, including AI LLMs, to tell stories that exist beyond conventional archives and that move across borders, languages, and disciplines.

This is an interactive session. Bring your project questions, challenges, and ideas as we collectively explore research, storytelling, and the future of the humanities.
