The Great Thanksgiving Listen

The Great Thanksgiving Listen is an annual initiative created by StoryCorps, encouraging people to record and share personal stories during the Thanksgiving holiday. Families and friends are invited to engage in meaningful conversations, capturing oral histories from elders and loved ones using mobile apps. This project aims to preserve diverse narratives and promote understanding across generations. Participants often share experiences about their lives, traditions, and values, fostering connections and enhancing the appreciation of personal and cultural histories. The initiative highlights the importance of storytelling in building community and preserving memories.
