Community In A Pandemic

The final interview of Dignity During a Pandemic looks at dignity, identity and the realities of increased racism for many in the wake of a global pandemic. Stay tuned next week to hear a recap of all the amazing contributors! 

In this week’s episode, Wen talked to Elaine Tran, a sociology student at Macewan University, volunteer and organizer with many local community initiatives. Elaine is a JHC Roots4Change team member, working with other youth to build advocacy tools to encourage their peers to understand and claim human rights principles to push for change. Here, we learn more about Elaine's understanding of dignity and identity through her lived experience.
