The curatorial framework behind Reclamation Day — Reclaim, Repair, Reimagine — isn't just a narrative choice. It's grounded in social science: studies on collective memory, belonging, social distance, embodied solidarity, and what it actually takes to close the hope gap.

We’ve organized this into a living literature review and are sharing it as a resource for the field. It’s early, iterative, and crowdsourced. We’d love your help building it!
