- Description
- Longtime Petworth resident, Arvella Farmer recalls growing up in Petworth and still living in the same home she was raised in. She remembers how members in the community looked out for one another, opportunities to sing at the Catholic Church, and how music was a uniting thread between herself, her brother, and the broader community. She met Andrew Hesbacher, who lived in Petworth for a brief period in 2018, when she heard him practicing his trumpet on his front porch and walked over to introduce herself. When asked what makes Petworth unique, Farmer answers: “The people who live in it…and love each other.”

- Angie Whitehurst Interview, April 16, 2020

- Creator
- Angie Whitehurst; Dan Kerr
- Description
- Angie Whitehurst explores how she has reacted to the COVID-19 crisis. She feels that the city did not react fast or well enough, and says that we should listen to doctors, scientists, and public health officials before politicians. Angie shares cartoons that she has been working on about COVID for Street Sense that include important messages about making change and staying home. The cartoons additionally explore the economic impact of COVID, both personally and nationally, the racial implications, and the need for social justice in DC jails. She ends with a call to help our communities: "human kindness is what we really need right now." This video is part of the Humanities Truck's From Me To You: A Covid-19 Oral History Project. https://humanitiestruck.com/frommetoyou/
