There is no single story that can describe the coronavirus pandemic. It s best told in the millions of individual experiences from a year like no other.
Christine Deng has kept a journal documenting her feelings during the pandemic, which took the life of her grandmother. I have all these emotions inside of me that are super overwhelming. Let me just empty it onto like a piece of paper, Deng said.
Deng is one of 1,400 women participating in Women Writing History, a Coronavirus Journaling Project for the National Women s History Museum in Alexandria, Virginia. Many have shared their frustrations, even anger.
