Today we had the opportunity to see City Sprouts and help pull grape vines and hear about their program. There is nothing like getting in on the action!

My experience at City Sprouts was very enriching. Learning about gardening and helping clean made me more aware of the importance of our health and help others who are affected with food insecurity.

While we were working I was reflecting on the importance of food access and community. Urban gardens are an important channel to bring healthy, sustainable food into communities and I can see how helpful these gardens can be for building community.

Hot! Peaceful. It was great to see this huge garden within the city limits. At the beginning of this experience, I was concerned about how I would feel. After the experience, I am smelly, but I am feel great and the garden looks better.

All I did was break my nail and this experience broke me down completely. I feel helpless, like there are so many things that I've failed to do in order to combat this. I'm also enraged to know that some people will campaign for these atrocities to continue.

It's basic human rights.

Today we participated in helping the Malcolm X Memorial Foundation declutter and organize their space. I all this picture progress because we helped in various forms, and although it seemed like a lot and we worked hard we progressed and got a lot done for the organization.

Fun helping out at the Malcom X Memorial Foundation. Working with a great team made the task a lot easier and enjoyable.

The VR experience placed us physically within the group.  I reached out my hand to guide the little boy several times.  The power of this approach is your sympathy shifts away from political policies to human experience. Taking a policy survey afterward minimized the power of the exhibit. Wish there had been a way to opt out.

This painting was a collaborative effort of OPS students and represents to me the beauty and richness that occurs when we take the time to understand and honor the experience of others.

Taking the risk to go into the unknown is scary. What lies beyond what you can see? Will you know what to do next? Will you be safe physically, emotionally, psychologically?

This immersive experience was absolutely incredible and something I hope everyone can experience. To put yourself in the life moments of another is necessary to advance as a society — and Alejandro G. Iñárritu captured their voices and pain beautifully.

Thank you for this experience.

This is a picture after our clean up. I really enjoyed this experience. An eye-open experience of learning the story of Malcolm X.

What I appreciate about the Malcolm X Foundation is their dedication to the legacy of his vision for human liberation. When I saw this view, I felt a moment of peace. I am grateful for the opportunity to support the organization’s work in a small way today.

The divide of opinions  would be smaller if people truly experience the view of the people willing to make a deadly journey for a chance of success. The school data I found is why I love Benson. One of the best student body diversity in the state.

Wow. CARNE Y ARENA is an experience you must go to.

It’s one thing to hear/read stories of immigrants and migrants crossing the border to a better life. It’s another to be present through virtual reality. This was truly an experience and one I will never forget. I’m

We must do better as human beings. We must educate ourselves about the world and communities we do not consider ourselves to be part of.

The reality and actual experience of immigration is heart wrenching and something that people need to understand.

This was an experience that has changed my views on immigrants that are crossing the border. I was amazed as what these people had to endure just to feel safe.

I wrote in the book at the end of the experience relating it to my own personal perspective of when Trump ended DACA and the fear that our families went through of deportation.

It was overwhelming to be there with them trying to seek asylum and being treated like criminals.

The virtual reality experience at Koneka was incredible. It took sometime for me to process the experience, I’m actually still trying to do so. The emotion it invoked in me was nothing like I’ve experienced before. I believe every law maker, policy maker, educator, and voter in America should watch this. I’ve had students tell me their personal stories about crossing the border but this shed a new light for me.
