Story Corps is an amazing nonprofit project - the goal is to record people's stories and copies are then placed in the Library of Congress. When I worked at the Phillips Collection, StoryCorps came and recorded stories that related to migration because of the Jacob Lawrence Migration Series Exhibition. The stories were very powerful and you could see they way younger generations really responded to hearing the stories of both their own families and strangers. It made the experiences seem so real and connected them to real people.
