Boston’s Stories, Unscripted

Boston’s Stories, Unscripted

By MIT Center for Constructive Communication

Overview

Join us in honoring the stories of Boston and the community organizers who made them heard.

The MIT Center for Constructive Communication invites you to listen in: What matters most to the people of Boston? Over the past year, we have partnered with local community organizations to hold deep, honest conversations with their community members about their daily joys, struggles, and hopes for the future. By listening across dozens of small-group conversations and leveraging AI-assisted tools, we aim to elevate the voices and stories that too often go unheard in the city.

Join us  on Monday, November 10th to experience how art, technology, and human connection can come together to paint a vivid, collective portrait of Boston  and call for the changes that Bostonians need.


A special thank you to the community organizations who have collaborated to make the realtalk project and this event possible: ArtSpark Boston, Boston Independent Nonprofit Journalism (BINJ), Boston CASA, Circus Up, Disability Law Center, Family Nurturing Center of MA, Greatest MINDS Boston, Joint Family, Primary Source, The Chica Project, and The Loop Lab.
