Thank you for checking out our project. I’m grateful that you would stop by. Please peruse the information below to learn more about our costs for the series. Your belief in this project means the world to us.

The Team 

Paying our team members, comprised mostly of Black women, will be our largest expense. Help ensure Black women are compensated for their work.

Do you need equipment?

We have most of the recording equipment we need, including cameras, microphones, lights and gear. But we could use external hard drives to save all of our content.

Software Subscriptions

I know it seems so simple, but subscription costs add up. We’ll need storage, file sharing, research websites, and more. We even found a site where you can send us your stories!

Off to the archives 

To learn about the riots, we are going beyond the Kerner Report and studies posted online. Help us travel to the archives of towns across the midwest to find the buried treasures of our stories.

How long are you raising money?

Our current campaign is 21 days in November, but we’ll be accepting gifts through 2027. If you dont have it now, but want to give later, we’ll be here.

How else can we help?

Listen. I know it’s been a tough year. Between gas prices, cost of eggs and huge layoffs, you just might not have it to give. We get it. There are many other ways to support. Click here to learn more.
