About Our Project
Vincent Hambright
Research & Oral History
Project traces the life of Vincent Manago Hambright, one of Cincinnati’s earliest known Filipino American figures. Through archival research, oral histories, and creative storytelling, we’re reclaiming his place in the city’s memory and honoring the complexity of his identity, resilience, and legacy.
Paths to
the Queen City
A digital mapping project that uncovers and visualizes the migration of early Asian communities to Cincinnati between 1870 and 1940. Each mapped point reflects a story of labor, belonging, and survival, hidden in plain sight.
Community
Digital Archive
Building a living archive of APIA stories, documents, and images from Greater Cincinnati. This collaborative effort ensures that family histories, everyday memories, and local landmarks are preserved and made accessible for future generations.
Local
Genealogy
Genealogy is more than tracing names; it’s a way of reclaiming lives that history tried to forget. For communities whose stories have been silenced or distorted, genealogy offers a path back to visibility. It helps us fill archival gaps, challenge incomplete narratives, and reconnect the threads of identity, family, and place across generations.
