There's a generation gap in America and I want to close it.

There's a generation gap in America and I want to close it. How do I plan on doing so? By starting the Stories Project, of course! The Stories Project includes stories, interviews, and discussions with and about members of the older generations gathered by members of America's younger generations. It aims to improve communication, enkindle understanding, and hopefully create a climate of rapport between young and old in America (and the world!).
