ABOUT

To Our Past Selves is a digital journal by Suveda Ramakrishna. Combining her passion for film and storytelling, each capsule expresses diverse narratives in diverse ways, ranging from creative projects to photojournalism.

The first capsule "To Our Past Selves"  sets the tone for what Suveda hopes this journal to be. As a participant of an open conversation space with fellow women of color in her high school, she realized the impact this community and these conversations could have had on her when she was younger. This sentiment was shared by other members of the conversations who inspired the first capsule. Suveda features peers who have diverse perspectives on the experience of growing up as a woman, and, more specifically, a woman of color.  As a resource for younger women of color, who may experience some of the insecurities that Suveda and her peers faced, the capsule is meant to empower.
