Together Apart
In this time many of us are not allowed to see the ones we love using virtual platforms is becoming much more common and to many, a necessity. We are from Two Harbors Minnesota which is a very small town with a population of under 3,000 and nobody’s a stranger. The relationships created with those around us impact us daily. Whether we realize it or not, simple everyday interactions are a crucial aspect of life as we know it. As soon as the world began to shut down, my girlfriend Calli and I were not allowed to see eachother anymore. It proved to be one of the biggest challenges that we would have to face.

I Just Want a Damn Hug. Second Place in Better Days Challenge. Top Story - May 2020.
Today is May 14th 2020; it’s my 28th birthday. While most people seem bummed about their birthday falling during the stay at home order in New York City, I am happy with it. Of course there are things I would rather do and places I would rather be, but I assume I will never have a birthday like this again and that's what makes it memorable. Much like the symbolism of a birthday - another spin around the sun, time passing - I know this time will pass and we’re getting closer to that day.

Homeless Adventures Part One
They call this area the “18th Street Bridge”. "Who's they?" you may be asking yourself. Well, it's predominately the homeless that call it that. It's where some of us homeless folk like to congregate for Church at The Garden. Yes, let me clear that up for you... I am homeless.

The Invisible Ones
I had the opportunity to learn about and engage with the philosophy of disability studies this Fall, 2017 semester. I came to understand the models of disability and how they apply to the functions of an ableist society. Throughout my studies, I was interested in the functions of invisible disabilities, i.e. a disability that cannot be physically perceived on first glance. I wanted to understand how those who cannot be physically identified with the disabled community interact with a world that perceives them as “one of the able-bodied crowd.” Because of social perceptions of disability, my goal was to capture how individuals who dwell in the “gray area” of disability identity take part in the two communities.
