City Awake Delegates has recently partnered with Dear World to capture the voices and stories of young adults of color in Greater Boston.
Dear World is an internationally recognized storytelling and portrait project based out of New Orleans and has taken over 60,000 portraits and been featured on Rolling Stone, Buzzfeed and CNN. In partnership with City Awake and Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce, Dear World is here to capture and share the lived experience and personal stories of the greater delegate community, specifically voices that aren’t often heard: Communities of Color. Example:
Are you African-American with family that has lived in Boston for decades?
Are you first-generation Venezuelan who moved here for school?
Are you a Korean young adult living in Boston and working on a visa?
Are you Mexican-American and lived in Greater Boston for as long as you can remember?
By sharing the individual stories and experience, this projects will highlight the diversity and depth of communities of color through sharing their lived experiences. Of the 700 delegates, we are inviting 75-100 individuals to participate. We hope you are one of those people!
