Urban Borderlands was designed by Tufts professor Deborah Pacini-Hernandez three years ago to facilitate a community based research project to document the oral history of the Latino Community. This research originally began in Cambridge and has now shifted to include a focus on Somerville, Massachusetts. The class offers students the opportunity to conduct their own fieldwork in the surrounding communities that might not otherwise be explored. The open-ended nature of the research project allows each student to focus on his or her own interest areas in order to make the semester-long project really valuable for them as individuals. Most of our research was conducted with the participation of community members of the Mystic View Housing Developments.
