This morning, WBHM’s Rachel Osier Lindley and Michael Krall visited the first day of YouthServe, Inc.’s Urban Service Grad Camp to talk about storytelling. YouthServe is an organization that encourages leadership and volunteerism while empowering young people in Birmingham.

Lindley and Krall led a session of YouthServe’s Advanced Mini Camp, which features key community issues and allows high school students to explore them. During the hour, the students listened to podcast and story sound clips, while discussing story structure and tips for storytelling. The students will be creating their own pieces that focus on an issue that interests them.
