Those other avenues, she said, should come from Biden, whose campaign promised to cancel student debt. “So today, I am saddened by the news, but I’m still here for the fight because I understand that there are other avenues to cancel student debt for myself and my family.” “I have taken a pause on thinking about anything in terms of family or home ownership or anything of that nature because I know that I owe student debt,” said Fennoy, 26. With Friday’s decision, Fennoy said she feels much of her life has been put on hold. Fennoy said her mother took out more than $170,000 in parental PLUS loans to help her attend Spelman College, the historically Black women’s school.
But she’s not the only one in her family who would have benefitted from Biden’s student loan forgiveness. Amari Fennoy holds $58,000 in student loan debt from obtaining her Master’s degree.
