As I came up to the top of the staircase, opened the fifth floor staircase door, I immediately noticed a blend of cultures, histories, and narratives that reminded me of the diverse and vibrant community I belong to in New York. It felt like I stepped into a brooklyn living room, the artwork from the b16 bus stop sign to the adidas in the storage area the exhibit felt like a reflection of the city’s spirit—an ever-evolving tapestry of different identities. In particular, I saw myself in the exhibits that celebrated immigrant experiences as i was greeted with reggae music and urban life, two themes that resonate deeply with my background as someone who has grown up in one of the most diverse cities in the world.
