Help needed for Oral History project


caz

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am an Oral Historian involved with the Elephant 21 project.

I would like to talk to long term residents from the Elephant

Castle area,to record their stories of life around the Elephant

before it disappears.

Does anyone have any relatives or friends who may be willing to help?

It would involve me going to their homes for 1 to 2 hours.

Thanks

Caz

Hi Cas. Can you give more details my family lived in that area for generations but laterly moved further afield, the older ones hAve now passed on, I have an early A to Z road atlas that shows the roads before the mass demolition and new housing built over old roads, I have tried to find an earlier one that showed all the small back streets and courtyards but with out luck, as these long gone pLaces keep coming up as the homes of the family. I did not live there I was born in Camberwell, and lived in Dulwich.

    • That is clearly not true. I see car drivers breaking the law on an hourly basis - jumping red lights, speeding, not obeying the general rules. Plus they are operating considerably more dangerous machinery and should have a greater responsibility of care to other road uses. You can see who causes the most harm by the stats. 
    • Looking for a suit for an 11 year old. Quite specific, white with black thin stripes.  Trying to replicate Michael Jacksons smooth criminal costume.  A blue linen shirt and white tie.    Thank you !!!!!!!
    • A quick Google found this, amongst other things: "Social impact models are frameworks or approaches that guide how organizations or initiatives address social or environmental problems."
    • "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck then it must be a duck" comes to mind Unfortunately, a large number of cyclists do exhibit selfish amd anti social behaviour which, regardless of how many good cyclists there are, is seen as the norm.  It's a bit like one car driver jumping a red light and all car drivers getting tarred by the same brush. Perception is the issue and if cyclists all obeyed the rules, everyone would be less anti them but unfortunately that isn't the case 🤔
