Part of conceiving and producing a digital humanities based project is choosing the right platform to share your stories. Through my engagement with the Latinx Digital Humanities workshop, I was introduced to two open-access tools. There are certainly other digital tools that allow for more aesthetically pleasing end products with a marketable quality, so to speak; however, through the workshop, I came to reflect on the importance of accessibility. Being part of the BIPOC community, I am aware that there are scores of poignant stories to be told, and these stories should be digitally accessible not only to a wider audience but the digital storytelling tools should be accessible to the storyteller. Learning how to use tools like TimelineJS and StoryMapJS gave me the confidence and understanding that I don't need to have monetary resources or years of training to adapt my stories to a digital platform. 

From a larger perspective, the Latinx Digital Humanities workshop was an important foray into the ethics of BIPOC digital storytelling, where I had the space to both understand my responsibilities as a researcher and member of a wider community. In the future, I hope to incorporate these tools into my traditional academic projects.
