From Agnes Scott College: As part of the City of Decatur’s 200th anniversary and Agnes Scott College’s Every Person By Name project (under the Mellon Foundation funded “Acknowledging Our Past, Acting Now for a Transformed Future” project) we set out to document the stories of our community. These recordings were collected spring 2023 through spring 2025 in collaboration with the Savannah College of Art and Design and StoryCorps. For more information about these projects visit Decatur’s story vault and Agnes Scott’s Every Person By Name website.

Audio files are now available at the DeKalb History Center. Contact the Archives to make an appointment.
