“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” 

-James Baldwin

The Bronx. The Great American success story. A home for the many different kinds of immigrants living in New York City. Much of its true history is unheard of; and in light of this pandemic, the voices and stories of the Boogie Down Bronx are being lost. This project seeks to change that: for the duration of this crisis and beyond.
