Black Memory and Storytelling Symposium

ASU Library’s Black Collections, a new archival repository within the Community-Driven Archives (CDA) Initiative, is committed to empowering and centering the lived experiences and knowledge of Black and African American communities who are breaking cycles of erasure. 

The Black Memory and Storytelling Symposium, hosted by ASU Library's Black Collections, brings together ASU faculty, students, archivists and community memory keepers to reimagine 21st-century archives as spaces of inclusion and justice.

The symposium took place April 20, 2023 at Hayden Library and April 22, 2023 at Burton Barr Library.
