Project Title
In Search of Solid Ground
Project Summary

Lishan AZ is collaborating with Dr. Jasmin Young and a team of artists to develop an immersive, hands-on game about the Great Migration, when tens of thousands of rural African-Americans moved to urban centers to escape racial violence and seek economic opportunity in the years surrounding the First World War. In Search of Solid Ground is the third in a series of interrelated games that explore the work of Black women who risked their lives to expose injustice at the turn of the twentieth century. AZ and team will engage high-schoolers as testers at each design phase in partnership with Sacramento Area Youth Speaks, and will host the in-person experience for classes and the general public.
