About the event
Join us for The Living Archive: A Community Salon on Black Memory, Story, and Preservation — an intimate evening conversation with fiction writer and community convener Tracy Chiles McGhee and archaeologist and archivist Tonika Berkeley, moderated by AMA Founder Naa Koshie Mills, PhD.
We’ll explore the practical, personal, and spiritual dimensions of African diaspora cultural preservation — from the stories we tell, to the photographs we digitize, to the histories we carry in our bodies.
