Making Memory Move is a collaborative and collective attempt at creating a series of spaces to remember the stories that have no pages in history text books.
We revive the stories left out of textbooks—restoring Black memory in the landscapes that tried to erase it.
We build with and for Black communities—grounded in truth, joy, care, and the power of collective memory.
Art is our tool for resistance—mobilizing history, truth, and creativity to challenge erasure and inspire change.
We dream beyond the past—creating monuments that honor Black futures rooted in justice, joy, and liberation.
“I used to think to think it was my rememory. You know. Some things you forget. Other things you never do. But it’s not. Places, places are still there. If a house burns down, it’s gone, but the place–the picture of it–stays, and not just in my rememory, but out there, in the world. What I remember is a picture floating around out there outside my head. I mean, even if I don’t think it, even if I die, the picture of what I did, or knew, or saw is still out there. Right in the place where it happened.”
― Toni Morrison, Beloved
