The Tardigrade Project

The Tardigrade Project seeks to shed light on the struggles with displacement and discrimination that marginalized populations around the world have suffered with for centuries. Inspired by Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson, we wish to humanize stories of displacement and uplift voices who have gotten trampled over in history in order to keep their history alive and remembered.

    You Actually Can Compare Apples to Oranges (Or Stadiums to Arenas)

    Before the No Arena Chinatown Philly movement in 2023, before even the Phillies stadium proposal back in 2000, there was the construction of the Capital One Arena in Chinatown, Washington D.C. back in 1997. What do these events in two separate cities, 120 miles apart and over 30 years difference, have in common? How can we prevent the destruction of culture from a major metropolitan city like Washington D.C. from happening again? Together, we’ll diver deeper into what happened to Washington D.C.’s Chinatown and Chinese population, and what that could mean for Philadelphia in the near future.
