Stanford students launch tribute to sexual assault survivor Chanel Miller https://t.co/UAdByjKPG4

cw: Sexual Assault
In 2015, Chanel Miller was raped behind a dumpster at Stanford. The University built a garden at the site, and agreed to install a plaque with her words on it. They never did.
I worked with @Schropes and @qualiaspace to use #AR to fix that. This is the story.
