Strangers Project - Mitchele

I met Michele in the living library event. Her parents immigrated to Canada from Germany. Michele was borne in Calgary and moved to this city at 2. Since I am a visible minority and Michele’s parents are European immigrants, I was interested in Michele’s immigrant experience and see if there’s any difference. Turned out they had come across kind of discrimination as well. She explained to me it’s because they were Germans and WWII was still in people mind. However, it’s a different era now. She is glad to see the campus is more diverse nowadays.
