Njila Collections

Collections

A collection is permanent. Always accessible. We do not take it down. We add to it. These are the standing works of Njila, the records we keep on view for good.

The Black Heritage Map

Standing Collection

The Black Heritage Map

More than 270 places across 27 states and the District of Columbia where Black people built, founded, and refused to disappear, each verified through archival research.

Coming Home Louisiana

Living, and growing

Coming Home Louisiana

A living archive of the Louisiana corridor: the parishes, churches, and family grounds where so much of this work begins. As a gathering, it also lives on the Events calendar.

The Listening Room

Coming

Standing Audio Collection

The Listening Room

Ancestor recordings, ritual soundscapes, guided meditations, and short films. Curated, permanent, and added to over time.

More standing collections will live here. The record only grows.
