On March 13th, my girl Floyya and I interviewed two people in one day. We rocked the conversations.
The second woman we interviewed was Melina Bernadine. She answered questions about the neighborhood that I didn’t even know I had to begin with. She also gave us some interesting and memorable advice. She said, “Get involved in your community. Get to know who your politicians are. Ask questions. And the most important thing of all is to love yourself and love where you come from.”

Do you know someone who has lived in Crown Heights for over 15 years? We would love to record their story!
