About
This ongoing collection brings together short video excerpts from interviews with young people in New York, Berlin, and other cities, reflecting on belonging, migration, family, discrimination, and everyday life.
Young people and immigrants are often spoken about in debates on migration, but rarely centered as experts and interpreters of their own lives. Their reflections show how policies, histories, and social norms are lived in everyday moments. The collection is intentionally transnational — not to flatten differences, but to surface shared questions across borders.
Explore the stories by theme, through curriculum pathways, through curated collections, by storyteller, or by browsing the full archive.

In the world, to be Black is majority. Which is what I am going to tell my children because I think it is absolutely necessary. ...Anything else would leave them with a minority mentality, and that is really what hurts the most.
Stories exploring migration histories, citizenship, displacement, and cross-border movement.
Reflections on racism, power, discrimination, and resistance in everyday life.
Experiences of growing up, family life, language, culture, and belonging.
Use the archive to explore all stories at your own pace. You can filter by topic, city, search by keyword, or browse page by page to discover stories across places and experiences. Each story is a short video excerpt drawn from in-depth interviews. Together, they offer insight into how migration, identity, and belonging are lived in everyday life.
