It is the duty of the Rebirth Project to cultivate a digital magazine containing multimedia content that documents the activity, thoughts and experiences of students in attendance at UMass Amherst with a focus on students of color and the ways in which their interests connect to the broader local, national and global happenings. Through well-executed journalistic, artistic and technical work, we withstand the legacy that has preceded us and work to inspire the future. The Rebirth Project further aims to provide a safe space for active and engaged discussion within the PoC community on campus, and to highlight local artists, businesses and social media influencers. The Project’s goal is to uplift people of color and provide a space for access and information about these people, as well as to hear different voices.
