Problem
Interview someone in your family (preferably a grandparent or someone older) or someone who is important to you. Ask them a range of questions, asking them about their family history and their personal stories. After your interview, write a 2 page typed (double-spaced 12 point font) paper placing your family story or a particular story in its historical context. Try to think about what historical forces or social structures were impacting the story/stories you have chosen to highlight.
