TESTIMONIALS

I’M NOT SURE IF YOU REMEMBER ME OR WILL READ THIS BUT I AM WRITING A PAPER ABOUT MY POLITICAL HISTORY AND I WANTED TO THANK YOU. WHEN I WAS IN YOUR NOVEL CLASS IN SENIOR YEAR, I WAS BEGINNING TO GO DOWN THE ALT-RIGHT PIPELINE. I AM GLAD I NEVER FULLY EMBRACED THESE IDEOLOGIES, BUT YOUR CLASS WAS A SIGNIFICANT REASON WHY I DIDN’T. I DID NOT UNDERSTAND LIFE OUTSIDE OF THE TINY BUBBLE THAT IS SAN RAMON AND I BELIEVED THAT AMERICA HAD NO SYSTEMIC ISSUES. HOWEVER, YOUR CLASS TAUGHT ME ABOUT INTERSECTIONALITY AND THE PROBLEMS FACED BY POC. ANYWAYS, I GO TO UC BERKELEY NOW AND I AM SO THANKFUL THAT YOU TAUGHT ABOUT SOCIAL JUSTICE IN SUCH AN EYE-OPENING AND PATIENT WAY. I AM VERY HAPPY TO HAVE FULLY EMBRACED PROGRESSIVE IDEAS AND I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR CLASS FOR SAVING ME FROM BEING BIGOTED AND CLOSE-MINDED. THANK YOU!!
