                <text>This photographic and oral history project by the Uncrowned Queens Institute is a response to the urgency of preserving the first-person narratives of local history-makers, who represent a group whose experiences and insights are in danger of being lost.   Over two years (2023-2024), oral histories were recorded with 24 significant history-makers in our community.  The resulting exhibit Say Their Names, in collaboration with photographer Yves-Richard Blanc, has been displayed at the Buffalo History Museum and Buffalo &amp; Erie County Public Library.  The Buffalo Public School District has also developed social studies curricula using the participants' oral history videos and biographies. www.uncrownedcommunitybuilders.com</text>
