If you could choose one object to tell a story about your past or your family’s history, what would it be?

Attendees at this Thursday's Broad Perspectives program at Congregation Rodeph Shalom, "Confronting Painful Pasts in Our Polarized Times," will have a chance to contribute to a pop-up exhibit about objects, memory, and history by reflecting on the above question.

But no need to wait for November 2! If you’re inspired to share, upload a picture of your object and your story to “Your Story, Our Story,” a digital gallery featuring objects that tell stories of American immigration and migration. (https://yourstory.tenement.org/)
