In his commencement address to Rutgers, Obama challenged Trump indirectly, essentially saying that the "great" part of the past he's looking back on was really only great if you were part of a defined narrative of privilege - a middle class straight white male, essentially. Did any of the people you interviewed express that for them, perhaps the past Trump refers to was not as rosy because of prejudice?

About a fifth of American female college students say in surveys that they have been sexually assaulted. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campus_sexual_assault

There are a lot of reasons people say that is -- alcohol, campus culture, the way universities handle cases. Is it really not a problem in Europe?

I have to admit I am not thankful enough for those things. Not having to cook everything on the spot is great.

I wish I could go on your trip! Maybe you should see if any filmmakers/journalists are interested in making a small project about your village. That is, if your family wouldn't mind it.
