Queens Memory

Remember Ida: A 3rd Anniversary Podcast Listening Session and Reflection Circle

"Remember Ida" will mark the third anniversary of Hurricane Ida, which hit New York City in September 2021 and caused severe inland flooding, particularly in low-lying areas and basement-level dwellings. The program will include a listening session of the Queens Memory Podcast episode, “Invisible Homeless,” about a family in Flushing who drowned in their basement home and the Chinese community that rallied to help identify the deceased. We will play select clips and share behind-the-scenes moments. Afterwards, we will hold a reflection circle with climate justice experts, researchers, educators, and audience members to discuss what still needs to change to prevent future deaths and ensure public safety.
