Host Dan Dyck chats with Mennonite Heritage Archive (MHA) administrator Graeme Unrau about his work in the world of GLAM*, Mennonite identity, and the stories we tell about ourselves. Graeme also highlights some of his favourite collections at the MHA and discusses inspiration he has found in the people he meets and works with at the archives.

*GLAM is an acronym for galleries, libraries, archives, and museums that is widely used in the cultural heritage sector.
