History Doesn’t Start in Museums, It Starts at Home (1920s Photo Deep Dive)

What if you could step into a 1920s classroom, and hear the story behind the faces in the photo? SAAACAM Archivist Caria Spenrath takes us inside a powerful historical photograph from the 1920s, joined by SAAACAM CEO Deborah Omowale Jarmon to talk about community heirlooms and why they matter. Every story matters, because history belongs to us all. And the truth is: history doesn’t start at museums… it starts at home. SAAACAM partners with the community to collect, preserve, and share what families have protected for generations so the full story is finally told. This fall, SAAACAM has more ways to get involved, including: a film club, Green Book Bus Tour and more community events on the way. You can help keep stories like this alive by donating during the Every Story Matters Phone Bank for SAAACAM, hosted by KSAT Community.
