Church Hill RVA tips us to the Historic Fulton Oral History Project:

VCU Libraries has put the fantastically interesting Historic Fulton Oral History Project online and is streaming all 17 interviews.

LISC, The Valentine, the Neighborhood Resource Center of Greater Fulton, and the Greater Fulton Future Legacy Work Team partnered in 2011 to collect and perserve the oral histories of the Fulton neighborhood–especially first-hand accounts of life before, during, and after Richmond’s urban renewal plans of the 1970s.
