- Antonious Bui Interview, May 14, 2020
- Date

- Antonious Bui; Naoko Wowsugi; Naoko Wowsugi
- Description
- Artist Antonious Bui, a fellow at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, MA discusses the impact of COVID-19. Antonious shares how, as a cultural worker, there have been a number of postponements and cancellations that have impacted the ability of fellows at the Fine Arts Work Center to work collaboratively in person. Antonious discusses how the pandemic presented an opportunity to critique institutions and demand a more equitable future, thanking the Fine Arts Work Center for responding to demands for stipend and stay increases. Antonious talks about how family, loved ones, and other artists have provided invaluable support, and also shares how it's been inspiring to see how the pandemic can provide a model for collective movement on other issues like the climate crisis. Antonious ends by hoping that we see how our "normal" is unsustainable, as it only serves the richest and most privileged. We need to recognize that we are not all equal, and that we all need to continue to pay attention to understand that collective movement -- and art -- is more important than ever. This video is part of the Humanities Truck's From Me To You: A Covid-19 Oral History Project. https://humanitiestruck.com/frommetoyou/

- Description
- Ashley Emerson, a second generation Washingtonian and Director of the Mayor's Office of African American Affairs, discusses the work she does, her personal experiences with Anacostia Park, and what it means to be a native of DC. She describes how important the Park is in her efforts to preserve African American culture in DC and help people with upward mobility.
