In the spirit of NPR's famous StoryCorps interview series, and in the interest of conducting original research to create primary source documents from our times, FALA's social studies classes will be interviewing community members on subjects related to our studies. It is our hope that these interviews will serve as a resource for other students and for the community. In a larger sense, our goal is to use interviews with diverse subjects to increase tolerance, understanding, and peace across cultural and religious divisions.
