      • Hi,

        I'M Amy Niu.


        I am a historian, a policy researcher, a grassroots organizer, an athlete.
        A questioner, a builder, an archivist, a storyteller, and just a girl who believes the court belongs to everyone.

        The Week That Was

        Founder & Editor-in-Chief

      • TED x CLC Women

        Delivered a speech on the limits of knowledge relating to history, on how history can never give us the full truth because every account of the past is a narrative shaped by perspective, language, and power. Ultimately, I suggest that the value of studying history lies in developing the responsibility to question stories, recognise what’s missing, and think critically about the truths we choose to accept.

      • Germany history trip

        In Berlin, studying the Second World War and the Cold War felt tangible, as history was embedded in the city itself rather than confined to textbooks. I was surprised by how openly Germany engages with its past, and the juxtaposition between modernity and technology with landmarks of the past, as seen by what McDonald’s standing in the place of what used to be Checkpoint Charlie.
