An invaluable resource for humanity, with nearly every testimony encompassing a complete personal history of life before, during and after the subject’s firsthand experience with genocide. Learn more about the collections that make up the Institute's Visual History Archive.

Throughout the month of April, Genocide Awareness Month, we have been asking for you to send in your stories of home relating to different themes: spaces and places, family and resilience. We have received moving contributions from around the world — from Morocco to Argentina to Israel and the United States. We have received photographs and videos and beautiful pieces of writing and poetry -- family photographs from generations before and visions of life as it looks now. As we move into the last week of April, we want to share with you some of what you have so generously shared with us.
