  • 2020: The Global Unifier and Divider
    2020 has been an anomalous year, not just for Americans but everyone across the world. However, it’s the current events in America that has the rest of the world watching closely.
    Despite travel restrictions placed on all Americans by The EU (European Union), our Str8up Crew travels to Europe to hear how some feel about certain disarrays going in the United States.
    We then talk to a former foreign exchange student who competed to come to America and left with a better perspective of different cultures who are often viewed negatively in international media.
