* A number of stories appearing on this site were shared at story circles
held under the auspices of the Dayton Stories Project (DSP) in Dayton,
Ohio. A collaborative arts project of CITYFOLK, The Human Race Theatre
Company and other local and out-of-town partners, DSP included community
sharing events at which participants told their stories to each other; a
Dayton Stories component at the National Folk Festival in Dayton; an
original play based on the stories; and an archive of audio tapes and
transcripts of stories told during the project.
Central to the project was the belief that stories have the power to affirm
individual lives, promote understanding of diverse cultures and create
communities where people know and cherish one another.
At the invitation of P.O.V. Interactive, a story circle was held for
members of the Vietnam Veterans of America, Miami Valley Chapter 97, and
another for individuals who had opposed the war. For more information about
