One Small Step brings strangers with different political views together to record a 50-minute conversation—not to debate politics, but to learn who we are as people. Created by StoryCorps, One Small Step is an effort to remind the country of the humanity in all of us—even those with whom we disagree.

Radio Catskill is one of just seven stations selected nationally to host One Small Step in 2024. With participant permission, these conversations will be preserved for future generations at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress.

Participants Alex and Tom recorded a One Small Step conversation at our Liberty studios earlier this summer. We spoke to them on Radio Chatskill about their experience and listened to a clip of their conversation.
