If you would like to view the Stories of the Southeast Chicago Archive and Storytelling Project as videos (rather than as online interactive documentaries), you can access the video versions below. Each of these four Stories explores a different part of the history of Southeast Chicago, once part of the largest steel-producing corridor in the world. Each story was created from objects and oral histories donated by area residents to the all-volunteer Southeast Chicago Historical Museum. Additional historical literature used to create these documentaries can be found at the end of each story.
