Documenting History:

Two years ago, StoryCorps launched "a movement to pause, listen, and honor the voices of a generation by interviewing a loved one. Sit down with a grandparent or other elder, a friend, neighbor, or anyone else who means something to you, ask them questions about their life. Who are you? How do you want to be remembered?

The Library of Congress is saving these stories for future generations.
