Voices of COVID-19 features conversations with people who are outside the limelight who are dealing with the coronavirus pandemic in their everyday lives. This is a globally shared experience and, while we have to remain separate we will need to get through it together. This podcast is an attempt to help people understand they are not alone and to learn from other perspectives on social distancing and COVID-19.

We hear a lot about heroes rising to the occasion in the face of the coronavirus pandemic. Unfortunately COVID-19 is also shining a light on some of our society's most troubling issues. Inequality and racism have always been a part of our country and they have proven to be more difficult to eliminate than any virus.
Fueled in part by inflammatory words from the President, COVID-19 is fanning flames of racism, particularly against Asian Americans.
In this episode, Brian Lucas speaks with Michelle Liu, a freshmen at Hamilton College in New York. Michelle talks about the disappointment of having her freshmen year cut short by the pandemic, and she opens up about how incidents of racism have left her concerned for her own safety well beyond the risk of COVID-19.
