My Work

Digital Storytelling of Chaldeans in America

Creator: Weam Namou
During the pandemic, I thought of ways that would be creatively helpful for the Chaldean community, Neo-Babylonians who are the indigenous people of Iraq and who still speak Aramaic. I came up with "Digital Storytelling," a project intended to inform the public about the history and culture of the Chaldean people, as well as support healing, and preserve knowledge and memories for future generations.
