"For a long time, it’s been a dream of mine to make documentaries, but I’ve always struggled with where to start. What I learned in this process is that my stories and the stories of my family are important and worth telling. Documenting my family’s stories has been a vulnerable process. I’ve learned a lot about myself and my family which has brought us closer and has given me a deeper appreciation of where I’ve come from." 

Immigrant Stories invites immigrants, refugees, and their families to create digital stories about their experiences. Each story is preserved in the Immigration History Research Center & Archives at the University of Minnesota, where we have collected materials related to immigration in the U.S. since 1965.
