Grounded in Diversity
Have you ever felt confused by your background, or judged because of who you are? Taking pride in our identity can be hard when we're stuck between multiple roles, or when others make us feel different. But here, in Grounded in Diversity, we will learn to share and celebrate our differences through conversations with researchers, teachers, and most importantly, each other. From answering your questions about our perceived differences to discovering why diversity is so important, we hope to help you feel a little bit less alone.
