DDFR ARCHIVE

We are excited to announce that we are in the process of fundraising and developing our collection of family photographs and interviews publicly available as the Digital Diaspora Family Reunion Archive.

The DDFF Archive will:

  1. Tell and promote narratives occluded in dominant history through the preservation and activation of personal and familial visual and audiovisual materials;
  2. Reconnect these materials with their original communities while expanding their availability to new audiences through exhibitions, talks, documentaries, book projects, and online and in-person exhibitions, and 
  3. Provide research and artistic resources to educators, students, researchers, artists, activists, media producers, educators, policymakers, and local communities.
