For this week's blog post, reflect upon your experience interviewing your oral history subject. How did you feel about the experience? Do you think it went well - why or why not? What do you think you might do differently in future oral history interviews? What was interesting about your subject's story?

Doing my first oral history interview was awesome! I really enjoyed it; I got to learn a lot about Ali Al Sundani, the person I interviewed. Overall, I think it did go well. It was a bit of a surprise when I found out I would be the interviewer, but thankfully it all went fine. Our questions were well thought out, and we recorded the video and audio awesomely. In the future, I would definitely consider creating some more follow up questions. Also, I would take more time in my interview. I believe the most interesting yet sad thing about Mr. Sundani's story is the fact that he has only visited his family once in the seven years he has been here. Also, that he got his citizenship last year around April. I really enjoyed my first oral history project!
