I like to traveling to go see it for myself. Like eating the different foods and listening to the different music. I LOVE seeing how much we have common. That\u2019s why I ask so many questions\u2014to old black folks, especially.<\/p>\r\n<p>In the last couple years, I\u2019ve been sharing the conversations I have. <a href=\"https:\/\/krakteet.com\/book\">Krak Teet<\/a> is an example of that. I also share audio and video sometimes. I call that work \u201cstory gathering.\u201d For myself specifically, I call it \u201cZora Neale Hurstoning,\u201d because our styles of gathering and telling stories are a lot alike.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>Textbooks call us \u201canthropologists\u201d and \u201cethnographers.\u201d I use those terms when I need to, but I don\u2019t care for them personally. I feel like they create distance between me and my people. They\u2019re also intimidating, and the work is far too important for us to shoo it away.<\/p>\r\n<p>We need more black folk who want to be anthropologists. I\u2019m realizing that more and more. Oral history tells the story of what actually happened and what also happened. These are the stories that are usually left out of the newspapers, because they\u2019re told by folk who ain\u2019t gon\u2019 talk to the news people. We still need their stories though.<\/p>\r\n<p>Their stories teach us:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>how our elders and ancestors survived<\/li>\r\n<li>how they saved money<\/li>\r\n<li>their opinions on what was going on in the world at that time<\/li>\r\n<li>what was important to \u2019em<\/li>\r\n<li>what they put their faith in<\/li>\r\n<li>what patterns they were noticing<\/li>\r\n<li>and the stories that were passed down to \u2019em<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div id=\"attachment_10445\" style=\"width: 652px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10445\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10445\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/media-archive.blackartinamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/patric_mccoy_nelson_stevens_1024x1024-1.jpg?resize=642%2C831\" alt=\"\" width=\"642\" height=\"831\" data-id=\"10445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/patric_mccoy_nelson_stevens_1024x1024-1.jpg?w=642&amp;ssl=1 642w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/patric_mccoy_nelson_stevens_1024x1024-1.jpg?resize=232%2C300&amp;ssl=1 232w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 642px) 100vw, 642px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10445\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Uhuru by Nelson Stevens (rare)<br \/>42 x 32&#8243; screenprint, 1971 &#8212; framed<\/p><\/div>\r\n<p>It\u2019s so easy to do. You can even (and probably should) start with your own family. Turn on ya phone recorder and start asking folk questions.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/krakteet.com\/5-questions-to-ask-your-elders\">Here are 10 questions<\/a>\u00a0in case you need help getting started. Keep it casual. It\u2019s a conversation. Be so curious that you come off as child-like. And save what you record, even if it\u2019s just two minutes of audio. I recommend saving it on a cloud, because if you lose or break your device then your interviews are gone.<\/p>\r\n<p>Once you\u2019ve stocked up enough interviews, then you can decide what you want to do with it. Maybe you put it on a CD and share it with all your family members. Maybe you start a podcast. You can also share them with the Library of Congress or even your local historical society.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>I interviewed 21 elders for\u00a0<em>Krak Teet<\/em>\u00a0between 2016-2019 and only 3 of them are still living. That gave me a sense of urgency to continue doing the work, yeah, but also get more people doing it. It ain\u2019t hard. Anthropologists don\u2019t need a college degree and you don\u2019t need to turn ya badge in at work to do it. Just\u2026do it.<\/p>\r\n<p>It\u2019s a deep sense of gratitude and satisfaction that you get from replaying those recordings after the person you interviewed is no longer here with us. Not in an ego kinda way either, but a wow. A whew. A thank God I did that.<\/p>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10290\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/media-archive.blackartinamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/buy-black-art-graf_5.jpg?resize=750%2C487\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"487\" data-id=\"10290\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/buy-black-art-graf_5.jpg?w=768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/buy-black-art-graf_5.jpg?resize=300%2C195&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>Browse and shop for fine art from our growing network of artists, collectors, estates, galleries \u2014 specializing in works by Black American artists with great values on premier art.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h1 class=\"post-title\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">START COLLECTING ART<\/span><\/h1>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sign up for our\u00a0<span style=\"color: #333399;\"><a style=\"color: #333399;\" href=\"http:\/\/media-archive.blackartinamerica.com\/index.php\/startcollectingart\/\"><u>free\u00a0email cours<strong>e<\/strong><\/u><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><strong>on how to begin your collection.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/media-archive.blackartinamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-10315\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/media-archive.blackartinamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2-300x200.jpg?resize=300%2C200\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-id=\"10315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg?resize=1440%2C960&amp;ssl=1 1440w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg?resize=272%2C182&amp;ssl=1 272w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/earthexhibitions.org\/media-archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/rsz_trel7_2.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>TRELANI MICHELLE<\/strong>is a writer, editor, and a historian who\u2019s helped over 1,500 teens and grown folk write and showcase their personal stories through memoirs, poetry, podcasts, and visual art.

In 2016, she received a Master\u2019s in Writing from the Savannah College of Art and Design.

Michelle co-created a curriculum that centered social issues, self-exploration, writing, and ethnography and taught it to high schoolers in an after-school program for two years. In the summer of 2018, she completed a 10-week internship at the Library of Congress\u2019s American Folklife Center where she curated and digitized\u00a0Gullah Geechee\u00a0collections, wrote and recorded podcast scripts, and held original handwritten manuscripts of\u00a0Zora Neale Hurston.
