i chose this piece because i was really interested in what chernobyl was because i feel like people really should be informed on certain topics like this instead of just judging people baised on what there outside apperance is i really liked how Irina who was born in Belarus stays close to her roots expecially at home i also like how she is trying to make a differance by creating an organization based on the chernobyl disaster. i cant exactly relate to Irina in the sense of me being affected by a disaster but i could relate to her based upon her trying to make a difference an raise awareness. overall i think that the piece was well put together and i liked how she added the phone calls with the doctors i think that she did a really good job
