“The Bronx COVID-19 Oral History Project”

After the coronavirus pandemic emerged, a group of students at Fordham University detailed the pandemic survival stories of Bronx residents entitled “the Bronx COVID-19 Oral History Project.” This project is only the beginning, as they hope to continue chronicling history.


It just helps people to gain the perspective of what people might be going through, to have a better understanding of this pandemic and how it affects people.
— Bethany Fernandez, Fordham University student.

The resilience is as important as the pain and this project presents both, that’s the Bronx. You’re going to meet a lot of heroes. These are people who set an example of overcoming adversity.
— Dr. Mark Naison, founder of the Bronx American History Project.
