During the summer of 2015, the fourteen original co-creators of #RacismIsASickness came to G-Town Radio from neighborhoods across Philadelphia, each bringing their own lived experiences and perspectives to the project. On this page are the photographs Smith shot of each of them in 2015.

Also, on this page are the maps highlighting sites of Black presence, history, and resistance in and around each participant's home neighborhood. They reveal how Black communities created institutions, places of gathering, and spaces for belonging that both sustained community life and responded to the realities of racial exclusion.
