Abstract
The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program gave me the chance to change something in society and the opportunity to raise awareness about social issues. I really wanted to shine a light on how misleading the media is when portraying minorities. My initial intent with my UROP project was to focus on construction of the Central Corridor Light Rail, particularly analyzing how it would affect Hmong businesses and the Hmong community as a whole. I wanted to provide an outlet for real people to tell their stories instead of having it told for them by a reporter on TV who looked nothing like them.
