Oral History Walks (2019-present)

Since 2019, Here goes the neighborhood... has cultivated a practice of oral history walks. Participants lead me on self-determined walks through their neighborhoods and share stories and memories based on place. They are invited to consider sites of meaning, memory, ritual, offering or change as

part of their sharings. Audio is recorded during the walk and site-specific movement responses are filmed to create short films and a digital archive.

Oral history walk participants:  
Bronx | Arthur Avilés, Rodrick Bell, Malcom-x Betts, Joan Bradford, Alexander Diaz, NIC Kay, Ana "Rokafella" Garcia

Brooklyn | Brittany Grier, Alba Delia Hernández, Maxine Montilus, Ricarrdo Valentine

Queens | Karesia Batan, Alberto Denis, Urvashie Kissoon, Aurora Reyes

Staten Island | Nubia Braithwaite, Idea Reid, Rosita Roldan, Melissa West

Albuquerque, NM | Raven Bright, Gabriel Carrion-Gonzales, Sarah Hogland-Gurulé, Natalia Hernandez, Paul Cuffee

Knoxville | Maddei Collins
