Title: Maren Orchard Interview, April 20, 2020
Date: April 20, 2020
Creator: Maren Orchard
Description: Humanities Truck Graduate Fellow Maren Orchard explores how the pandemic has impacted her life, especially as a final year graduate student. She shares how she has been struggling with the uncertainty of her next steps amid a pandemic, yet reflects upon the privilege she has to make certain decisions. Maren talks about her work as a student worker, and the often unnaccounted emotional weight of sustaining those close to her. She shares her struggles of feeling guilt and shame over her emotions, when she recognizes others are in worse positions. However, she has found calls with family and friends, being with her roommates, and talking with others in similar positions to be sustaining. Maren hopes that people will recognize their privilege as a result of this crisis and that we will act to put systems in place to provide for our most vulnerable citizens. She hopes that everyone will act to "better ourselves individually and in our communities, and structurally at national levels." This video is part of the Humanities Truck's From Me To You: A Covid-19 Oral History Project. https://humanitiestruck.com/frommetoyou/
