On June 14th, the Board of Curators of the Wisconsin Historical Society gave the 2024 Governor’s Archives Award for Archival Achievement to the Wisconsin Latinx History Collective. This award recognizes a historical records repository that has made an outstanding contribution to the archival profession or a notable achievement of value to the archives community, its patrons or constituents. Founded in 2020 by Dr. Andrea-Teresa “Tess” Arenas, a CLS Emerita, the Wisconsin Latinx History Collective brings academics and community-based lay researchers together to recover the stories and history of Latinx communities in Wisconsin. The WLHC team, which includes researchers from the Universities of Wisconsin, Marquette University, and other institutions, connects with potential oral history narrators and donors of archival material within the Latinx community to create a lasting documentation project. As of March 2024, the Collective has identified, collected, and transferred to the Wisconsin Historical Society five collections of personal and organizational papers and cultivated numerous donor relationships with prominent Latinx community members. Several others are in process. These collections highlight not only the people involved and their own history, but the important contributions they have made in areas of academia, television and media, social action, LGBTQ+ activism, and disability and veterans rights advocacy. Right now, a team led by PI Almita Miranda of the UW-Madison, with support from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission, is preparing a digital edition of many of the WLHC materials. This resource will soon be available to K-16 educators. The Chican@ & Latin@ Studies Program is the major partner for the Wisconsin Latinx History Collective at the UW-Madison.
