In 2020, the National Public Housing Museum began sharing audio from its archive of oral histories in a podcast called Out of the Archives. Each episode includes a diverse range of stories told by public housing residents. The episodes feature different themes that respond to the NPHM mission to preserve, promote and propel the right of all people to a place where they can live and prosper—a place to call home. Stories make up the backbone of any culture; they tell us where we are from and who we are.
