November 24, 2020 The College Hill Independent
The College Hill Independent (commonly known as the Indy) is a weekly newspaper written, designed, and illustrated by Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design students. In an effort to make its work more broadly accessible to Spanish-speaking Rhode Islanders, the College Hill Independent is proud to present its first-ever issue fully in Spanish, including both translations of pieces previously published in English and original literary submissions. Volume 41, Issue 9 features stories about pressing challenges such as police presence in Providence public schools, Rhode Island’s budget during the current pandemic, and the burden of pollution in low-income minority communities along Narragansett Bay. The latest issue also includes a translated interview with the world-renowned musician, composer, and producer Nicolás Jaar ’12, as well as original poetry and prose written by Brown students.
