This is the photo

of my grandmother. The look

of determination

in her face.

We started pretty small.

I started cleaning,

looking for the image

and the legacy.

My great grandfather

used to roast chicken.

"We're here to stay",

as if he was shouting it.

Uplift the stories

that make up our neighborhood and

think about

the way we can

honor our traditions.

Debrief.

Themes. 

Quotes that we love.

Conversations that we were having.

Unpack this

complicated past.

Are we part of it

or are we

not part of it.

The issues at hand...

conversations, 

we ended up

really having a conversation

we started having one.
