This summer I had the honor of being the project assistant and documenter for the Youth Public History Institute, a new project conceived by Mariame Kaba of Project NIA and Interrupting Criminalization focusing on the histories of prisons, slavery and rebellion, policing and surveillance, research and social justice. I created a visual and written record of the program to share its impact with a broader audience, including curating a newsletter that serves as an archive for the program.
I am so grateful to have worked with people who are creative, collaborative, thoughtful, and passionate about criminal justice. Documenting this journey, sharing stories, and amplifying voices has been a humbling and truly rewarding endeavor and an experience that has changed my life.
I hope you enjoy the newsletter!
