On June 17, Staten Island-based musician and cultural organizer Darrell Smith will open the evening with a brief musical gesture to ground us in place and tone. From there, we’ll move into a community-led conversation grounded in a shared reading—chosen with Darrell and Snug Harbor in the coming weeks. As one of New York’s most historically layered boroughs, Staten Island offers a powerful setting to reflect on themes of migration, memory, labor, and imagination in the context of revolution, past and future. 
 
By the People: Conversations Beyond 250 is a series of community-driven programs created by humanities councils across the United States, its territories, and the District of Columbia in collaboration with local partners. Together, these programs explore 250 years of the nation’s cultural life and imagine its shared future. The initiative was developed by the Federation of State Humanities Councils and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage as a complement to the 2026 Smithsonian Folklife Festival.
