Madison Munro - 2020 February 18

I continued transcribing "Stories My Grandmother Told" and it just gets more interesting. As someone who has lived in Oregon most of my life, it is super interesting hearing what it was like back then. There were many accounts of Native Americans on the mission and most of them are very troubling and uses outdated terminology. Though what I do appreciate about these accounts is that the author is sure to distinguish between "first white person born in Oregon" as opposed to the inaccurate "first person born in Oregon" which would be a form of erasure. I'm very excited to continue reading and transcribing!
