Oral History

Oral History

Picture
The ISJL's Oral History project collected hundreds of audio and video interviews with Jewish Southerners from all over our region. These recordings—firsthand accounts of life stories and community histories—offer present and future users a unique resource for learning about the personalities, experiences and memories of Jews in the American South. Several of these oral histories can now be viewed on our YouTube channel.

We occasionally still complete commissioned oral histories and special projects; to learn more, email us.
