About Narrative
Narrative captures stories of South Carolina through interviews and personal conversations.
Begun as an initiative to document the accounts of people recovering from the historic floods that hit the state in October 2015, Narrative explores various themes—from ongoing disaster recovery to the state’s military history, to the journeys of individuals and communities working to better understand issues of race, ethnicity and identity, to the personal struggles and triumphs of those who call South Carolina home.
Narrative is recorded by South Carolina Public Radio and also uses selections recorded separately by StoryCorps for the station.
