We hear about how her physician Chinese dad was rejected because of his ethnicity when he wanted to join a local country club, how even recently, someone shouted “Hey you! Chinese lady! You! Get out!” These stories are not to portray anyone as a victim, but to help you perceive life through another person’s lens and be more thoughtful about how we ask even a simple question. We want to give you another perspective, to invite you to hear about someone else’s life – perhaps one you could never relate to (or maybe you can) and to create awareness so that we can grow in respect for each other and look past our differences.
