A man walks by Market House
This man was once an enslaved boy.
He will never see Market House as we do.
Passing by Market House, the man recalls his glitching memories as a child slave sold at auction.
As he walks by each window, horrific scenes brush past in his head that was lost in his memories.

‘Reassemblage' by Trinh Minh-ha
Rather than telling the story of her subjects, Trinh Minh-ha uses
fragments and layers of imagery and sound in creating non-linearity.
With the challenge of trying to view the space with a decolonized gaze,
I had a completely new experience with intimacy and distance.
I was able to achieve a new way of looking as I removed my privileges in “knowing.”
“I do not intend to speak about -
Just speak near by”
