America's Most Historic Videos







  • If you are between the ages of 14 and 24, want to have some fun using a DVD camcorder, and have any interest in life in America, please contact me at bdcrouse@fclspa.org, subject American Album.



  • If you are 50 or older and have a favorite story to tell from your childhood or young adult years, WE WANT YOU!


"An American Album" is a federally-funded project, under my leadership to share American stories in two ways:


  1. 100 book discussion totebags containing 10 copies of a book about American life, a discussion guide, and either an audiorecording or videorecording of the book, or a magnifying glass to be used by groups in Franklin and Fulton Counties for book discussions



  2. a collection of DVD recordings of personal "oral" history accounts from people right here in Franklin and Fulton Counties.



Later this spring we will be holding a contest for the young people who record and edit these videos, 1st place will receive $50!
