• Describe the Impossible Project in one word: "Life-changing."

    -Alexis Harrell is a former IP student, mentor and researcher who is currently studying Social Data Science at the University of Oxford.

  • What is the Impossible Project about? "The Impossible Project is all about unlearning and relearning. It is very daunting and intimidating work, but I learned to dare to imagine a world without white supremacy. It was an amazing experience that changed a lot of the ways I think about life."

    -Gabriela Perez, Master student, Anthropology, SUNY Buffalo

  • What lessons from the Impossible Project do you believe everyone should know? "Everyone should know that we all play a part in ensuring the world is inclusive and equal for all, and that we should truly practice acceptance of those who are most vulnerable to injustice and discrimination."

    Jeannine Nwade is a former IP student and researcher who is currently a Business Consultant at Ernst and Young

  • How has the Impossible Project changed the way you teach? "All my previous courses not related to IP were cut and dry in the sense that there was always a right and a wrong answer and all my teaching experience and knowledge is predicated on that assumption. Moving to IP has made me think about teaching where there is no right or wrong answer. This inherent ambiguity in the has forced me to change my thinking about what the outcome of my teaching should be."

    Atri Rudra, Katherine Johnson Chair in AI, SUNY Buffalo

  • Why would you recommend the Impossible Project to others who are committed to social and planetary justice work? "Because it is one of the best, creative and non-judgmental ways to expose the opportunity for thinking outside the box regardless of where you begin."
