| Description: | NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD: This funding announcement is not a request for applications or proposals. This announcement is to provide public notice of the National Park Service’s intent to award a non-competitive Cooperative Agreement in accordance with Department of Interior, 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. The objective of this agreement is to tell stories through oral history interviews of the ’formerly enslaved people. It has remained largely untold within the context of VICK’s interpretive efforts. Regrettably, traditional methodologies within the discipline have proven problematic, and often unsuccessful in attracting the participation of the African American community. Please see attached Full Announcement for more information. |
