Announcing the VLTCC Opening of... "3D Virtual Reflections of a Digital COVID-19 Memorial".
You are invited to visit the latest Real to Virtual; Virtual to Real integration project within the Virtual Laboratory Training and Career center (VLTCC) in Kitely... "3D Virtual Reflections of a Digital COVID-19 Memorial”. The 3D immersive virtual world project was created to share information about real life United Memories, a digital COVID-19 memorial honoring Black lives lost to COVID-19 in the United States. The real life COVID-19 memorial was created by the Founder and CEO of Black Ladies in Public Health, Dr. Jasmine Ward with other dynamic Black women from across the country who also serve as leaders in public health. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, these women have been investing their time, talents and treasures to organize and mobilize the community in a collaborative effort to develop United Memories. The real life United Memories website was launched to bring the names, faces and stories of the diverse community of Black people who lost their lives to COVID-19 in the United States to the forefront. It gives family members, friends, coworkers and colleagues an opportunity to share photos and stories of those lost to COVID19. The submission of related visual art, music, and poetry is encouraged. I applaud the vision, work and commitment of Dr. Ward and everyone involved especially the “Truth-Tellers” for pouring this cultural libation into the world as a ritual of recognition, honor, and remembrance.

The overall purpose of the 3D immersive virtual world building project was to share information about this powerful digital memorial. Throughout the building process, I found myself reflecting on the profound loss within the African-American community in the United States. The 3D immersive virtual world project serves as another way to grieve, reflect, and remember. It was an honor to build the "3D Immersive Virtual Reflections of a digital COVID-19 Memorial... United Memories" in remembrance of Black lives lost to the COVID-19 pandemic.

You are invited to browse the photo album for the 3D immersive virtual world building project entitled, “3D Virtual Reflections of a digital COVID-19 Memorial… the “Real to Virtual; Virtual to Real” integration of United Memories into a 3D Immersive Virtual World". You encouraged to visit the 3D immersive virtual world project located within VLTCC @ Kitely. To learn more about the real life United Memories, or submit information about a honoree; share uplifting artwork (or poetry) and/or know of resources to assist in the grieving process, visit the website at http://www.unitedmemories.com.
