The last time you heard my voice, we told you we were doing something different. Well, we’re back for another one. This time we have a full issue of the same Herald you love in audio form. You’re not just reading our writers’ work. You’re hearing their own voices.
Take Will Reid, PC ’19, for example. He pops that infamous Yale Bubble, drives just a little bit out of town, and listens to some political voices that we don’t often hear around here.
For Culture, Marc Shkurovich, BK ’19, takes us to visit the Freestyle Collective. In Voices, listen to some powerful poetry by Claire Sheen, SM ’19, and some prose by Coryna Ogunseitan, TC ’17, that carries us to her father’s birthplace and back. You will laugh, maybe not cry, but you will definitely enjoy every second.
For The Yale Herald one last time,
Korinayo Thompson and Phoebe Petrovic
