| United States | 10 MINUTES | EnglishNew York, Animation, Art, Technology
The past, present, and future of the Black communities that built New York City are monumentalized in Kinfolk: Black Lands. Black Lands explores the histories of Land of the Blacks, Flatbush Ancestral Burial Grounds, and the Pinkster Festival by highlighting the lived histories of individuals within those communities, creating a safe digital space to connect with our ancestors. This experience is a precursor to the launch of the location-based version of Kinfolk in New York City.
