Oral history is a powerful tool that can build community and advance justice through education and advocacy. However, all of that starts with building relationships through great conversations.
This single-page handout contains over twenty prompts to spark new stories, deepen bonds, and create a safe and brave space for sharing. Anyone can use these conversation starters with family, friends, and peers to create a culture of openness and vulnerability in their relationships. Teachers can also use these conversation starters to help students practice interviewing and active listening skills, and oral historians can use these questions to establish a rapport with narrators.
