The StoryCorps-Warmamas Community Archive is a collection of oral history interviews with enlisted men and women, veterans, their family members, and friends. The interviews, conducted between 2013-2018, document the experience of serving in the military and having family members who serve, including personal reflections on the ramification of war. The collection includes interviews conducted by Warmamas, a project directed by Patricia Figueroa Sowers that places a special emphasis on interviewing women whose children have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Access to some of this content is limited to computers in the Richter Library on the University of Miami campus. Please visit the library to view this content. Visitors not affiliated with the University of Miami should consult the library’s patron access policy.
