Submit a Photo To The Archive Here

We are embarking on a project in partnership with the Hurricane María Archive to capture this momentous period in the history of Puerto Rico through the eyes and participation of Diaspora in the #RickyRenuncia movement. To do this project we need your help. Tell us your story, send photographs, journals, or recordings that represent how you participated. Our archive will join as its own collection as part of the Hurricane María Archive for the public, educational, and research purposes. Together we can start to build this important community archive!

Some examples of items that could be included in the Community Archive are:

• a sign or art you or someone else in your community created

• screenshots of social media posts

• videos or recordings of events, classes, workouts, spoken words, and music shared online during this time

• photographs of your home/work-space or scenes from around your community that illustrate changes in society taken during this time

• your own (written, audio, or video) documenting your experience

To do this project, we need your help. Submissions may be in the form of digital photographs, text files, PDFs, spreadsheets, presentations, audio files, or video files.
