I recently had the privilege of working on the first installment of videos for the Black Asheville Storytelling Experience, an interview series hosted by Roy Harris and filmed at the YMI Cultural Center.

Being part of Hamilton Media Design, the crew that filmed and edited these videos, gave me the opportunity to hear the stories of some of Asheville’s Black residents. They spoke of their lives, careers, families, and personal encounters with racism. As a white person, these are stories I hear far too seldom. It’s my honor to share them with others.
