Tell Me Who You Are Local History Project Instructions:     For this project, each student must interview at least one individual.  You may interview a family member, relative, friend, neighbor, classmate, co-worker, fellow congregant, or others.  The purpose is to record and document a person or someone from an organization whom you admire and respect and has contributed to your respective community.  You should conduct an interview of at least 30 minutes in length.  You must upload a brief video clip or audio recording of the person interviewed.  An eCampus link will be provided for you to upload your essay and brief video/audio clip.  In addition, you must read the first five chapters of Tell Me Who You Are by Winona Guo and Priya Vulchi.  Then, choose one story from each chapter to include and analyze in your essay.  Be sure to read the book’s introduction, as well as the chapter introductions, to gain some context and a better understanding of the book’s major themes.  

     Upon completion of the interview and reading of Tell Me Who You Are, Chapters 1-5, you must write an essay of 3-4 pages about your interviewee and the stories you have read from Tell Me Who You Are.  Additionally, you must reflect on what you have learned from your interviewee and the book chapters and assert your own analysis.  Try to connect the highlights of your interview with the people you have read from the book.  For example, what are some shared experiences?  What are some different experiences?  What personal themes come up in your interview and chosen stories?    

     Do not copy and paste or plagiarize from other sources or AI tools to write your essay.  Your essay must be properly typed: 12-size font, double-spaced, in paragraph form, with complete sentences, and one-inch margins.  Include a separate title page—title of your essay, name, course, date, and your professor’s name.  Your entire paper must be uploaded in eCampus.
