This article focuses on "Immigrant Stories" which has enabled wide participation by giving individuals complete control over their stories and defining "immigrant" broadly. It teaches anyone, including students, to make a digital story about a personal or family immigration experience. Participants have the option of sharing their videos with the project, which is run by the Immigration History Research Center (IHRC).
