The Kindred Blackness ART LIT DATA set is a carefully curated data resource dedicated to African American community web archiving, data information, art and literature, and providing access to the work of a select group of artists and writers from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The work of these artists and writers is archived as text as data and information as art, serving as a valuable source of information for research or life-long learning. The data project is based on the belief that self-documentation of one's history is essential to understanding oneself and one's community through art and writing. The dataset is a part of the Relational Possibilities: A Remix of Aesthetic Forms Through Indigeneity and Blackness, LEAD 2023 Fellows Project, 2023-2024, Drexel University & Temple University Libraries
