“We’re trying to make Congress more than just about researchers and their research, and thinking about how community produces research, and how community might act as an archive.”

In THERE'S MORE, Uchechukwu Peter Umezurike interrogates the possibility and necessity of holding multiple homes.
It’s a crucial topic in this time of vastly increased displacement and immigration.
