\nAmid the COVID-19 pandemic, we are living history and the\u00a0Historical Society of Washington DC<\/a>\u00a0wants to capture these unprecedented times. The society started a project to record the current events of your everyday life. You are invited to reflect on and record your daily reality for others to look back on the history we are living today. The website has information on how to participate, from taking photographs and completing a survey to keeping a journal and gathering items for a time capsule.<\/p>\n
