“I would speak up and speak out about things that I did not mess with. And people were not used to that. People were used to experiencing things, seeing things on Harvard’s campus and just shutting up about it. And that’s not how I was raised. That’s not what New Orleans taught me. If I saw a problem I would call it out. At the same time, I also value discussions about things. I value having diversity of opinions.”

Join our host David Chen as we sit down with Samyra Miller, a senior at Harvard College, for another episode of the Humans of Harvard College Podcast.
