Under pressure (doo doo doo doot doot doo doo)

The Richard B. Russell Library for Political Research and Studies at the University of Georgia focuses on the dynamic relationship of politics, policy, and culture—generated wherever public interest intersects with government. 

The Russell Library's oral history program consists of active, ongoing oral history projects administered by Russell staff (such as the Georgia Environmental Oral History Project and the First Person Project), as well as oral history collections donated to the library by researchers, such as the Dean Rusk Oral History Collection. On our SoundCloud page, we'll be posting excerpts from various oral history recordings and archival audio recordings in our collections.
