Activity description: My Freedom Day is an annual event, backed up by CNN where students around the world hold events to highlight modern-day slavery. In order to participate in this event, my class and I made a video describing what freedom means to each of us in one word. Afterwards, the video was posted on Instagram.
Reflection: I feel that events like these are very important, and one should do their best to participate. Slavery still exists, and it is should not be viewed as merely a part of the past. It made me happy that the rest of the class and I could take part in this project. It was a great opportunity - not only for the cause of the event, but also for comimg together as a class, even in the present difficult situation. I definitely hope that we are going to be able to spread awareness and take part in similar events in the future.
