Listening Session and Discussion: Stories of Neighborhood Change

Among the first casualties of gentrification are stories. Preserving these stories and encouraging “deep listening,” and the challenge of grappling with uncomfortable stories and diverse opinions, are vital components in preventing the erasure of history.
Join us for an oral history listening session and discussion. Excerpts focus on community resilience and Crown Heights’ economic, cultural, and spatial change.

Presented as part of the Voices of Crown Heights project, a multi-year oral history project that explores the history and future of Crown Heights with partners Weeksville Heritage Center and Brooklyn Movement Center.
