Rsvp to attend 

Black Baltimore Digital Database monthly digitizing sessions will have various themes centered around assisting Baltimore’s Black citizens on how to archive their own history - for themselves first and foremost - generating  a vault of historical content owned exclusively by individual participants. For us, by us. 

We have created a digital archiving platform that will make it easy for multigenerational citizens to access and execute uploading valued materials they can choose to share with other family members or the general population. In an effort to emphasize the importance of individuals being able to secure their data without the involvement of traditional institutions, this unique software design incorporates category structures, profiles, tags and other tools to make it easy to upload, search and recover personal data. In order to start your journey into your family’s BBDD account, you must attend an intro session at our CharmCCC headquarters. 

To set up your family’s profile page please bring at least 3 images to choose from. One image will be self-selected by each participant which will represent your family as a unit. Then uploaded to the BBDD server at our headquarters during the session. Instructor will lead the introductory session and will assist in getting you started. You will always have access to your data and can terminate your membership at any time. These sessions will also include shared conversation surrounding each selection from participants as these social engagements will help the community and future generations understand the importance of safekeeping personal histories and the significant narratives attachment to the material you share with one another.
