Resourceful Inhabitants
Knowledge for All
____
Elbert and Patrick are artisans, their manufacturing businesses are their lively-hoods. They work for the community, they continue playing music in the tenement yards in their leisure. They care for others, they take pride and ownership in their work; and their common life and their history are primary to their being. They have been victims of gang intimidation, they have moved, they have returned, they have survived through hurricanes, political riots, and food shortages, but their sense of place is deeply fixed.
