9 Millones

9 Millones de Voces is an oral history project where community is the focus. For over three years we have been creating space to collect meaningful memories related to the Puerto Rican experience on the archipelago and our diasporas. This year, we are ready to share them in podcast style, but we need your help. In each episode, we’ll dive deep into one story with interviews of people who are important in their communities, but whose lives are rarely known outside of these spaces. These stories are about migration, community organizing, and the beauty in everyday life.

We are asking our community to support us in producing the first two episodes in New York City, NY and Philly, PA, respectively. Your money will directly support a local community producer.
