Memoirs of the Colored Girls Museum: For Blackgirls Everywhere to Remember That Our Love Is Enuf

This article is a nonconventional archival repository for the Colored Girls Museum in Germantown, Philadelphia, wherein I posit that the museum space is a radical love site through its curation of social relationships, spatial capacities, and navigation of time. Through the transformation of oral history with the museum's founder, Vashti DuBois, I fashioned an avant-garde memoir about how DuBois's own life story is a curation toward radical love that is held by a space. Specifically, I argue that radical love cultivated through the museum space provides a nexus for affective potential, interaction, and interdependence. The creative methodological approach has allowed me to provide a mirror, dynamic archive, and letter for Blackgirls to bear witness to themselves being centered and loved through narrative.
