One of the most important functions of this website is to provide a forum for former members of Peoples Temple and relatives of the Jonestown dead to write about their experiences and perspectives. While each individual story brings a powerful voice to any consideration of the events of 18 November 1978, their totality contributes to an even more important \u2013 if sometimes cacophonous \u2013 body of work. For that reason, these stories may also be found on our growing online collection of perspectives\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We invite other members and families of Peoples Temple \u2013 whatever your views on the tragedy of Jonestown and the factors that led to its end \u2013 to join in this chorus. Contact us at\u00a0remoore@sdsu.edu<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0fieldingmcgehee@yahoo.com<\/a>\u00a0so that we may add your story.<\/p>\n
