Due to the U.S. Federal Government’s violations of student free speech, including the cancellation of student visas, the Institute for Critical Storytelling has removed all student work from its website in order to protect the authors. Many of our student researchers and authors are international students, students of color, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and members of other marginalized groups. The ICS website will be discontinued this summer though our mission will continue - just not virtually. We thank all the authors who shared their stories and all the readers who engaged with their stories.
