Journeywoman
Amy Douglas
Amy spent 2019 to 2020 revisiting her apprenticeship with renowned Scottish Traveller tradition bearer, Duncan Williamson.
A treasure trove of tapes, a year of listening and a changed world later, Amy shares of experiences of listening to tales of Traveller harassment as the Black Lives Matter campaign unfolded and stories of travelling, horse fairs and ceilidhs as our roads emptied and we stayed home.
Old stories for new times - our world keeps changing, but human nature stays the same.
Or
Old stories for new times, Amy explores how to tell stories from her apprenticeship with Duncan Williamson in a new century and a different world…and yet human nature hasn’t changed at all…
