This ongoing collection brings together short video excerpts from interviews with young people in New York, Berlin, and other cities, reflecting on belonging, migration, family, discrimination, and everyday life.
Young people and immigrants are often spoken about in debates on migration, but rarely centered as experts and interpreters of their own lives. The collection is intentionally transnational to surface shared questions across borders.
Explore the stories by storyteller, theme, through curriculum pathways, through curated collections, or by browsing the full archive.

I remember telling my godmother, who I consider almost like my mom, [that I am queer]. She told me that it was my choice, and it was not really the way I was, and I was choosing the devil and stuff. And I think because of her reaction, I felt like, "Oh my god, what if my mom disowns me? What if she is disappointed? What if she finds out?"
