StoryCorps is coming to the National Center for Civil and Human Rights on Friday, May 29 as part of its Southeast Mobile Tour.

Dedicated to preserving powerful, real-life conversations, StoryCorps helps ensure the voices and experiences of our communities are heard, remembered, and archived for generations to come.

While a limited number of stories will be recorded onsite, individuals interested in sharing their stories are encouraged to learn more and apply for future recording opportunities through StoryCorps.

Help preserve Atlanta’s stories and voices for the future.

Before visitors take a seat at the Lunch Counter, our Gallery Assistants are clear about what you’re stepping into.

You’ll hear the voices that young protesters endured as they sat at segregated counters across the South... not reacting or retaliating, and refusing to move.

It lasts 85 seconds. And in that time, you begin to understand what was at stake.

You can stop at any time. They chose not to.
