We asked the 350 #firstgen #lowincome students @Princeton’s @Team1vyG conference to share the challenges they face. The answers are unsurprising & devastating. I thank the students for being vulnerable & allowing us space to process/reflect. This is 3 of 30+ pages of responses.

Today I had two firsts: (1) I gave my first keynote & (2) I cried for the first time while giving a keynote.
There is much to process, but I am so thankful to this year’s 1vyG coordinators for inviting Viet & me back. 5 years later & I’m still in awe of this #firstgen movement!

(1 of 2) Hate crimes up 31% in NYC- tragic sign of the times. How much are they up in your community? Our response can't be complacency.
So much has changed these past few years. #firstgen teapawt.net/kmjlbrown/status/79169…
Can I have a moment to reflect on the power of #firstgen #lowincome college students? We came together less than 3 years ago.
