Measurable Outcome(s)
Here is what I have so far completed:

* Attended Somali Independence Day event at Lake Street in July, 2022 where I was able to interview and get many footages of attendees.
* Able to travel around twin cities and record footages and pictures that will go onto the movie ; I was able to complete my project which was to interview Somali-Minnesotan experience into documentary film. This film is now complete and I am able to share it moving forward. It helped provide much need rich representation as what it means to be Somali-MInnesotan.
