I Was Here aims to engage communities and to begin the process of healing spaces wounded by enslavement.
Through the blending of history, technology, humanities and the arts, I Was Here explores the significance of memory, history, and ancestry by displaying the powerful imagery of contemporary African Americans standing in the space of an ancestry they will never know.
