Junior History Major Annie Li Selected as a 2020-2021 Imagining America Joy of Giving Something Fellow

Junior history and sociology double major Annie Li is among eight undergraduates nationwide selected as a 2020-2021 Imagining America Joy of Giving Something Fellow. The fellowship, which includes a tuition scholarship, mentorship and financial support for a community arts project, recognizes Li’s work on Emory’s “Stories from the Pandemic” project. For her community arts project, Li plans to make a film about the experiences of Chinese Americans in Atlanta during the emergence and spread of COVID-19. This idea was inspired by a spring 2020 course on Asian-American history that Li took with Dr. Chris Suh, Assistant Professor of History.
