StoryCorps

In keeping with the last post, here is something I stumbled across while surfing the web yesterday, and broke down weeping as I watched it.

StoryCorps is a project of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, National Public Radio and the Library of Congress to capture an oral history of the lives lived in America, an invaluable project for artists, historians and citizens. They also just announced a partnership with the National Resources Defense Council to record stories in the Gulf of Mexico. You can listen to all their stories here or watch a couple more animated ones on their YouTube Channel. Here’s another one, just for good measure, that should leave you bawling.
