The purpose of the project is to collect stories of racism and violence from a diverse group of individuals throughout LA County in order to seek the truth about systemic racism and its impacts, to recognize how racism perpetuates violence, to acknowledge past harms, and to use information gleaned from stories to create recommendations for government policy, practice and system change. The project will reflect the actual voices and words of individuals who will share their experiences and perspectives through audio recordings submitted via the OVP website. Stories will be shared publicly through a variety of mechanisms with consent.
