About the project
Talking Walls is an audio-visual film and archive project canvasing the narratives of Black and queer/gay/lesbian/SGL-identified people, with a focus on personal and private spaces. The project is comprised of recorded interviews with self-identified community who have a strong memory or experiences connected to space/place. The project includes voices located in the cities of Philadelphia, New York, Chicago and Detroit, with hopes of expanding with ongoing support.
We hope these conversations and spoken histories will provide insight into the connected interior lives of Black queer folk. We are prioritizing stories from “seasoned” people, or stories that are the most fragile of being lost.
