Tenement Talk: We Are Brooklyn

How do we start conversations about immigration experiences? What can we learn about each other by listening?

Join us for an event with the Brooklyn Listening Project, a Brooklyn College oral history project in which students in a variety of classes are sent out to interview family, friends, neighbors and strangers. Jessica Siegel, project director, will lead a conversation with project participants about the project’s new exhibit “We Are Brooklyn: Immigrant Voices,” which draws upon oral histories with immigrants and children of immigrants and underscores the importance of sharing immigration stories with each other and the larger world.
