true Freedom
This is a group assignment that I have been working on with Christina Ascani for our Multimedia for Photojournalism class at RIT. This is our first version, which needs some tweaks, a little bit added to the narrative, and some more shooting to back up the story, but it’s been incredible getting to work with Thidah (Tee-dah) and to learn about Burmese culture and what it is like being a refugee in America.
