Global Student Square is launching a new video project with one aim in mind: What do you have to say to America's new president — the 45th @POTUS — Donald Trump?
For me, the most uncomfortable feeling I’ve ever encountered — and continue to encounter — is feeling unwelcome in my own home. And thanks to the executive order on immigration and refugees that President Donald Trump signed last Friday, this painful feeling shows no sign of dissipating.
"Here Today," our just-finished digital storytelling project in Paris, gives a human backstory and predicts the chaos that erupted after an executive order on immigration signed by President Donald Trump last Friday.
For all of the communities that Donald Trump marginalized, threatened, and scared throughout his campaign, this inauguration day means one thing: The time to seek solutions is now.
“This project is really amazing because we are not only covering a global issue, but we are also able to take the individual superpowers and perspectives of every 10th grader and create something great from it,” said Christina Nessim, 15.
When we read an article about a refugee’s journey, we don’t get the same impression as when we actually talk to the person who took the steps to flee his country for another place.
Our first #GSSChat Election Coverage chat of the day included a discussion with students from the Ben Franklin School in Barcelona and the American School of Paris.
Take a look at how we run #GSSChats in preparation for our election day coverage! This was from a September chat with our South Korea and Bali students, discussing one student's visit to the Korean DMZ.
Submit your own video to globalstudentsquare@gmail.com and we may feature it Tuesday along with recordings of our around-the-world video chats in Europe, Asia and the United States.
