In Episode 4—“Community Voices”—the SDCELAR team comes together with residents, organizers, and cultural activists working to sustain borderland communities. From collective memory projects to grassroots art spaces, this episode shines a spotlight on the local leaders and storytellers whose work weaves resilience into everyday life.
Listeners will meet individuals preserving languages, foodways, and oral histories—remembering the past while forging hope for the future.
🎧 Our Role
Our production team captured these dynamics using on-location field recordings—community gatherings, workshops, story circles—mixed with remote interviews. In post-production, we shaped a warm, layered narrative that amplifies multiple voices while keeping each contributor clearly heard in context.
✨ Why It Matters
“Community Voices” centers the people who live and expand the borderlands—not just as subjects of study, but as agents of care, culture, and belonging. It underscores a central theme of the season: archives and art mean little without the communities that give them meaning.
