What does oral history add to understanding colonized societies?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Experiences and memories left outside written colonial records

Oral history uses interviews, community memories, and stories passed between generations to bring out experiences that colonial official records often excluded. Therefore, option A is correct. Written sources are not useless; historians compare them with oral accounts to develop a fuller picture. Exam tip: in source-based questions, identify which source gives voice to marginalised groups and personal experiences.
