In Your Shoes video series
Our videos focus on the unique stories and day-to-day lives of Boston residents.
Each “In Your Shoes” episode serves as a window into the life of a specific person. Our goal is to elevate the voices of those often marginalized or misrepresented. We're creating a platform for Boston residents to tell their own stories.
