The Friday after Thanksgiving has been designated as the
National Day of Listening since it was launched in 2008 by
StoryCorps, a nonprofit oral history project. Americans are encouraged to take the time to record the stories of family members, friends, and members of the community. I'm posting a little later than I intended, but there is still time to participate!
StoryCorps has recommendations for
equipment and
resources if you want to conduct interviews today or even during the remainder of the holiday weekend. Take some time to listen to a relative and record that person's memories. Keep your family history alive by saving the stories and sharing them with other family members.
