This is a special project made by photographer Kiyun when she asked all of her friends at fordham university to take a board and write down an instance of racial microaggression they have faced , the project soon caught on national attention and was featured by all the big news sites , the message it tries to pass through lovely pictures is that these ” small ” little comments are made everyday at thousands of people and it effects them.
