Welcome to the second episode of Disclaimers Aside with Aissata Amadou! In today's episode, I recap the amazing opportunity to fly to Washington DC and meet Michelle Obama. I am not joking. I truly learned a lot from traveling alone by myself for the first time to hearing the perspective of other students from colleges across America.
