29. History 4 Two

I am a high school student living in Shanghai with a passion for history and social justice. I feel the best place to learn about social justice topics is through our rich history. I believe oral history conveys perspectives and emotions that one cannot learn from textbook and to that end, I decided to reach out and chat with experts, historians, and tangential participants willing to talk to me about these topics. I try to interview experts and take a deep dive into different historical injustices in hopes of avoiding the same mistakes again.
