“I used to think it was my rememory. You know. Some things you forget. Other things you never do. But it’s not. Places, places are still there. If a house burns down, it’s gone, but the place—the picture of it—stays, and not just in my rememory, but out there, in the world. What I remember is a picture floating around out there outside my head. I mean, even if I don’t think it, even if I die, the picture of what I did, or knew, or saw is still out there. Right in the place where it happened.”
Toni Morrison, “Beloved”
What started as a thesis project in 2019 while studying at Parsons School of Design has turned into a vital creative community for Black women and non-binary creatives—and true to its name, Rememory Directory, it’s a tool to revisit and reclaim narratives for Black women.
