Explore our Collections
The Journal of a Plague Year has developed around a series of collecting efforts, seeking to identify and explore the silences of the traditional archive. These efforts reflect both individual efforts, teachers' work, and the development of curatorial communities. Learn about those communities below.
New York
Welcome to the Brooklyn College Journal of the Plague Year! We invite members of our Brooklyn College community—current students, staff, and faculty; alumni; and members of our larger borough and New York City—to share stories and experiences about Covid-19. You can contribute anything you like to this digital archive: personal narratives and family stories; interviews, whether as audio files or transcripts; artwork, music, and photographs; poems and other reflections; fictional accounts, graphic novels, and zines; images, videos, tweets, and other digital objects; Facebook and other social media posts, and Instagram and Snapchat memes; PDFs, screenshots of news reporting; etc. We welcome anything that helps to capture the pandemic and other issues related to this historic moment.
This page is collecting stories as part of the ASU-Luce-Cronkite fellowship.
