"So I feel like community healing just takes time. It’s not easy to do but when we do it, it’s so powerful because you see the transformation happening in each of us. So to me, that’s the beauty of communal healing and that’s the resilience of the healing. Our ancestors, they’re teaching us what resilience looks like. I have a huge appreciation for members of our community, because without them and without their vulnerability, genuineness, passion, and compassion, I could not do this."

“This is not just about me doing the cultural performance. It is about speaking about forbidden, buried histories that were never told or went into sleep because of so much pain and fear. This time that we are living in is the time to allow them to speak up, to unbury their silenced voices, [the time for] awakening and healing.” dohee lee
