The Memory Project

World War II – The Memory Project
Your task is to write a letter of remembrance from the perspective of a personal relation in your family who was alive during WWII.  Your letter will tell a personal story that highlights their life experiences and perspectives during the war and any contribution made or criticism toward the war effort either on a home front or a war front anywhere in the world at that time (1933 - 1945).
It is critical that you develop a letter based on research and an understanding of the biases for and against the war and/or certain groups, events, actions, or policies they would likely have had due to their social identity (e.g. country of origin, nationality, ethnicity, minority, woman, etc.).
In the interest of realism, your letter may express any stereotyped or discriminatory ideas your personal relation had at that time. But, you must remember that while people had biases based, in part, on their social identities, that not all members of a given social group would have felt the same way.  Excellent letters may include research that uncovers a disagreement with the dominant views held by others within your character’s social identity(ies).
