Project description
This item was collected and digitized as part of the Harriet Tubman House Memory Project, a Boston Research Center effort from 2020 to 2022 to preserve the history of the Harriet Tubman House, which stood at 566 Columbus Avenue in Boston's South End neighborhood from 1975 to 2020. The building was the base of operations for United South End Settlements (USES), as well as a community center, gathering space, art gallery, and main office for several
nonprofit organizations. Harriet Tubman House services continue at USES' historic Rutland Street campus. The Harriet Tubman House Memory Project was designed with current staff of the USES and community members affiliated with the activist group I Am Harriet (IAH). These interviews largely took place via remote recording technology during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, and were conducted by staff and volunteers at the Northeastern University Library and the Boston Public
Library. These interviews represent the stories of past and present staff, artists, and community members involved with the Harriet Tubman House since the building's development in the 1970s.
