THE FLOGA (ΦΛΟΓΑ) PROJECT
Concurrent with the production of the documentary
series, the Greek Heritage Society is also working toward
establishing an Archival Resource Center to house all the
historical materials that have been compiled through the
Oral History Program. Through its FLOGA (ΦΛΟΓΑ)
Project (FLOGA in Greek means FLAME, and signifies
PASSING THE TORCH from generation to generation),
the Greek Heritage Society documents the story of early
Greek immigrants and highlights continuing generations.
In doing so, it provides its community with an extensive
database of Southern California's rich Greek American
history. The archive will consist of a computerized
catalogue of video footage, photographs, and written
documents gathered and produced by members of the community.
