This was a mini project that we did to start off our sophomore year. We interviewed two family members we thought have overcame some hardship in their life. During those 45 minute interviews we asked over 50 questions and recorded and took notes of what they said. From those, we picked the interview we thought could be turned into a more compelling story. After we wrote our story we had 5 to 6 critiques from classmates. This taught me even more and made me realize mistakes are okay to make. People will help you get things corrected and make your work better. It was interesting to me who this all tied in to our overall torture project. Our overall project questions were:
1) Are humans the real instruments of torture? Is torture ever justified?
2) How can we practice resilience, reclaim strength, and celebrate vitality?
3) What does it mean to be a "survivor"?
