Frameworks: I chose \u201cWhite Doctor\u201d by Alison Roh Park. This talks about the narrators loved one who is at a hospital and has a white doctor. From my perspective of this poem, the narrators family had always relied on ancient remedies to cure illnesses, but in the western world, they often disregard such remedies and call them nonsense. For that reason the doctors would rather make you rely on their expensive western medicine than you use affordable ancient remedies. I picked this poem because it reminded me of my own family and how we too often use ancient remedies for various illnesses. But like the narrators lived one, there are times when we have to use western mediation, even if it\u2019s expensive. <\/span><\/p>\n

Stories: I choose \u201cPOV From the Frontlines\u201d by Charezka Renordio. This story talks about how a sick nurse had wanted to go to the doctor because she was sick but couldn\u2019t since the staff was running out of safety equipment due to non health professionals hoarding them. People often forget that health professionals aren\u2019t immune to diseases, and since they are the ones working on the frontlines during this pandemic, they need health supplies and equipment more than anyone. I think it\u2019s very unfair for people to hoard an insane amount of these equipments like masks for themselves, and let the elderly and health professionals be prone to sickness. <\/span><\/p>\n

Resources: I chose the comic \u201cProtect Yourself, Family & Friends From Getting Sick\u201d by Malaka Ghairib. It shows drawings and explanations of different ways you can take safety precautions during the COVID pandemic. I thought this comic was cute and informative which is why I chose it. I also like how there is a translation in another language provided as well.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
