Digital Humanities Initiative

The CUNY Digital Humanities Initiative (CUNY DHI), launched in Fall 2010, aims to build connections and community among those at CUNY who are applying digital technologies to scholarship and pedagogy in the humanities. All are welcome: faculty, students, and technologists, experienced practitioners and beginning DHers, enthusiasts and skeptics.

We meet regularly on- and offline to explore key topics in the Digital Humanities, and share our work, questions, and concerns. See our blog for more information on upcoming events (it’s also where we present our group’s work to a wider audience). Help edit the CUNY Digital Humanities Resource Guide, our first group project. And, of course, join the conversation on the Forum.

    Chris Howard-Woods started the topic OutHistory.org Pride Month Campaign in
    the forum NYCDH Announcements:

    Dear DHers,

    OutHistory.org, the scholarly LGBT history website created by Jonathan Ned
    Katz and maintained (currently) at The New School under the direction of
    co-director Dr. Claire Potter, has been offered by a Greenwich Village
    writer and artist a $10,000 donation if other donors match that amount.
    OutHistory is requesting Pride Month donations of all sizes from those who
    love LGBTQ history.

    The site’s co-directors Jonathan Ned Katz, Claire Bond Potter, and John
    D’Emilio are alerting OutHistory’s supporters to their potential donor’s
    offer.

    The potential donor told OutHistory: “I inherited money from a lover of
    more than 50 years ago with whom I always kept in touch. I think that he
    would be pleased that I am offering to contribute to an organization of
    importance to the LGBT Community.”

    Donations help bring to the public original scholarly research like John
    D’Emilio’s Oral Histories, Jonathan Ned Katz’ Stonewall Police Reports,
    Marc Stein’s work on Boutillier V. INS (1967), and much, much more.

    OutHistory.org is a project of the Fund for the City of New York, a
    not-for-profit corporation. Donations are tax deductible.

    Donations to OutHistory may be made online by clicking here. Checks made
    out to Fund for the City of New York, with OutHistory.org written in the
    memo line, may be sent to:

    OutHistory.org
    c/o Fund for the City of New York
    121 Avenue of the Americas, 6 Floor
    New York, NY 10013

    For more information, contact outhistory@gmail.com OutHistory’s recovery of
    the LGBT past rouses people to make a freer future.

    Many thanks,
    Chris Howard-Woods
