I received a testimony from Zoey, a white British woman and Kakazi, a black woman who spoke with two different perspectives. Zoeys was the most profound to me because it made me realize that international students may not about the history of inclusivity and segregation on Georgetown’s campus. She gave a fresh perspective on inclusivity at Georgetown because she spoke from a British perspective and gave it from a non-minority experience. This was ono February 10,2019 at 3:30 on the way to Darnall Hall.

Testimonial- Kakazi and Zoey

This was a personal reflection that I did at Georgetown University’s Shades of Saxa retreat. It was the profound statement that Queen, an alumna stayed that made me want to explore the minority experience at Georgetown. She made me feel that Georgetown was racially segregated and most of the minorities would have the same rhetoric. This was on January 21st , 2019 at about 6 pm.

Personal Reflection

My interview with Ryon Henderson on February 10 at 10:30 pm in Harbin Hall was significant because he spoke about a perspective that contradicted mine on the minority experience at Georgetown. He did not feel limited on Georgetown’s campus and it helped me realize that not every minority experienced the same thing at Georgetown. It really broadened my perspective.

My third ambient noise was outside of ICC where minority students in and out of class. It was significant to me because I realized that we were supposed to function like a “normal” Georgetown student and participate in the things that Georgetown’s students participated in while sometimes not feeling apart of the community. This is why I feel like inclusivity should be addressed. This was taken on February 14,2019 at 9 pm

Ambient Noise- ICC

The ambient noise is at the Center for Multicultural Equity and Access on February 13, 2019 3:15 pm. It’s significant because the CMEA is a space for minorities to feel included and is one of the few spaces dedicated to make the minority experience at Georgetown an integrated one, something I cherished when walking through and talking to employees.

My second testimonial was taken to Toella, a biracial student at Georgetown. She did not feel restricted as a minority at Georgetown and it was significant because she helped me realize that inclusivity at Georgetown can go beyond race and can be attributed to lack of economic inclusivity. This was taken on February 11th, 2019 at around 2:45 pm.

My second ambient  noise is at the Intercultural Center on February 13,2019 at around 1:45 pm and like the CMEA, is a space for representation on campus. I heard minorities talking about a book they were interested in on the black experience. I cherished sitting there because it felt like a safe space on a campus that did not have many. It contributes to Georgetown’s effort of inclusivity directly.
