In what ways, if any, have your feelings about America changed since the 2016 election?
I feel that the level of racism and xenophobia towards South Asians has increased since 2016. Furthermore, the level of corruption within the Executive Branch which, in my opinion, has increased since 2016 has shown that America may be a nation in decline. As such, my opinion on America has soured considerably since 2016.

How have the last four years impacted you personally?
I have pursued jobs outside of the United States due to fears that the country may not be hospitable towards non-Caucasians. I have also experienced an uptick in racist statements directed towards me.

What is something about the 2020 election cycle that you want to be sure we remember in the future?
The biggest takeaway is that political and/or government systems need to be truly robust to ensure that all citizens within a democracy are appropriately enfranchised. Our system of government (in the US), is not sufficiently robust. This is the key takeaway from this time period.

What are you most hopeful about for 2021 and beyond?
A democratic majority Senate and Biden-Harris win.
