Our State, Our Lives, Our Home Stories Project

The goal of the Stories Project is to build bridges so that all Ohioans can better understand our common humanity. (Read stories collected so far - Adobe PDF 950k)

If we don’t tell our own stories, someone else will tell them for us.
We can no longer let that happen. Tell your story below: write from your heart. Write as little or as much as you want.

How do Ohio’s unequal laws affect your own life or the lives of your friends or loved ones?
What is it about Ohio that makes you want to stay and call it home? Or, why did you decide to leave?
What was it like to hear that most Ohioans voted for Issue 1 in 2004?
What would it take for you or your loved ones to actually feel at home in Ohio?

(You may type freely in the textbox below, or write your story in MS Word or another program and copy/paste it into the textbox.) MAXIMUM CHARACTERS: 4000
