“Through this journey we learned we all have different voices, but we came together for one goal: to let people hear our stories and to tell the world about us.”

The narratives take many forms to chronicle family, neighborhood, identity, and New Orleans, and reconfigure how we think about ourselves in relationship to broader sweeps of history.
