Tasha lives in Juneau, but has been going to school at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts. When her campus shut down due to the coronavirus, she was concerned about returning home and inadvertently putting her grandparents at risk of infection, so she decided to quarantine at her sister’s place in Portland, Oregon.
She also talks about healthy ways to stay preoccupied during quarantine, how the recent protests over police brutality have impacted her, and her hope that the world can come out of this a better place.
Hosted by Riley Taylor.
Music by Devin Shreckengost.
