Today, Capital B is launching its biggest project ever.  For the Record: A Black Oral History Archive is a collection of over 100 firsthand stories from Black Americans across regions, generations, and identities. Since last year, our reporters and partners have been gathering recollections from Black people that paint a vivid picture of resistance, resilience, invention, and celebration. These stories now live in a growing library at ForTheRecordArchive.org. 

We hope you’ll add your own voice and help build a record of Black life that can endure for the next 250 years.
