Where To Start

Start Here Start at 1619. Move forward.

The Arc is the spine of this project: 40 essays, one chronological argument, five analytical lenses.

The Arc / Observations The running argument. Read the core sequence as one sustained line of thought. Curated Black Media Digest Supplementary reading, media, and adjacent material.

Read the Arc through its lenses

Monument What is formally commemorated and what that public memory hides. History What was structurally done, built, justified, and enforced. Witness Testimony, lived experience, and what the record sounds like from inside it. Culture How the archive speaks through literature, music, church, language, and art. Present How the machinery persists now: policy, power, memory, and consequence.

This site should read like a structured archive, not a loose category list. The Arc is the entry point; the lenses help you move through it with intention. Empty sections stay hidden until they are live.
