Amani Hayes-Messinger ‘18 is a sophomore pursuing a double concentration in Computer Science and Narrative Studies. She is fascinated by memory and the ways in which it is constructed and reconstructed, orally and in written creative nonfiction, to facilitate personal and community identity formation and to serve as a form of protestation. She wears her uncolonized hair proudly, and believes it is best complemented by a burgundy/maroon/black aesthetic with matching lipstick and blended eyeshadow.
