Description: When the sun goes down in Brooklyn, pirate radio stations fire up their transmitters and take to the air, beaming transgressive, culture-bearing signals into Caribbean, Jewish and Latino neighborhoods. The Brooklyn Pirate Radio Sound Map is an archival home for the sounds of renegade community radio at a crucial turning point in its history. The Brooklyn Pirate Radio Sound Map (BPRSM) traces the lingering connections between unlicensed radio broadcasting and Brooklyn's local neighborhood culture in the digital age. This ongoing archival audio project explores the conditions that allow stations to operate openly and illegally, the needs of their audiences and their effect on licensed stations. Audio samples are drawn from recordings made from 2014 to the present.

Description: This former Protestant church is the oldest mosque in all of North America. There are no big signs outside to tell you this. No dome on top, no minarets, or Arabic inscriptions. In fact, the only clue sits high up on the roof: a small white hexagonal turret topped with a crescent. In truth, the Brooklyn Moslem Mosque is more “little church on the prairie” than a mosque.

Description: Seed bombs, the "tree lady of Brooklyn," and the roots of urban gardening. New York City looked a lot different in the 1960s and 1970s. A sharp economic decline and white flight meant there was mass disinvestment and urban decay, particularly in the city’s lower-income neighborhoods. It’s what Hattie Carthan and Liz Christy noticed in their communities when they each set out to revive their neighborhoods by making them greener. Ultimately, their radical acts of gardening would transform the landscape across New York City.
