"The Struggle is Real" by Wen-Ju Chien

“Our Stories: Summer 2020” is a photographic and reflective undergraduate student-based project that hopes to document our present times through the eyes, voice, and language of our students. 
The FIU Honors College and the Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab had the idea of sending a small group of students a disposable camera to give them the opportunity to show us a glimpse into their life this summer. 
Students were asked to capture their day-to-day life in just 27 exposures, write a reflection about their experience, and join us on a podcast episode to debrief everything that happened these past few months during a global pandemic, nationwide protests, presidential election, and more. 
Our students reflect on moments like managing their mental health, being stuck in different countries away from their family, activism during COVID-19, the fourth of July 2020, what the first few months of quarantine felt like, black lives matter protests happening around the country, and more. 

These are their stories.
