REFLECTION

  I chose this topic because it affects a lot of people who are part of my community. Minority students specifically. I focused on their struggles and why they have these, how it affects us, and possible solutions. Of course it’s hard to change this but speaking up about it is necessary to make an impact.  Some obstacles I faced while putting this documentary together were having to figure out what software I would use.
