Grand Rapids college student’s memoir on courage and persecution encourages more equitable future

Things I wrote in collegea note on that: My senior year was supposed to be the year I chose between a future where I’d run a company—or run for Congress. Instead, I chose journalism. College me was never a regular contributor to the school newspaper: in this past life, I wrote things like campaign platforms, commencement speeches, business book reviews and company blog posts. It isn’t journalism, and a lot of it isn’t even good writing. But, journalists are always trying to tell the full story, and I wouldn’t be telling mine if I left this part out. So here’s what I wrote in college.
