This collaboration began in July 2018 when Richards-Wilson saw the Hall’s nationwide “Imagine the Conversation” contest, which tasked participants with imagining what may have been said during the historic meeting of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. Richards-Wilson was fascinated by the idea and contacted Hall Education Coordinator, Natalie Munderville, seeking project suggestions. Months later, the podcast project was born, and with Munderville as a resource, students soon found themselves looking through newspaper clippings, obituaries, and other archival material from a place hundreds of miles away that none of them had ever heard of— much less visited to explore the archives. Now, with their completed podcasts, they have embedded themselves forever within the fabric of the Hall’s rich history.
