We’ve handed the megaphone to Dominique Luster, founder, and principal archivist at The Luster Company.
Dominique believes in archives and storytelling, and The Luster Company is the outpour of that spirit by way of helping individuals and organizations uplift, honor, and tell stories that represent the lived experiences of the Black diaspora.
Working in the cultural heritage and memory work field for nearly 10 years, she has come to understand that history is not merely a listing of events in chronological order. But rather a meticulously curated phenomenon of power. All too often the stories of marginalized communities are suppressed, oppressed, erased, or forgotten. The Luster Company seeks to rechart that path.
You'll learn;
- the difference between the past and history
- why digitization of records is not always the best option
- the power of archiving to empower a generation
