AWI Our Stories Our Voices presents: Passing it Down: The Hurt and Strength we Hold through Generations
The Our Stories, Our Voices festival celebrates AAPI mental health stories told by AAPI filmmakers and artists. Over two days, filmmakers, mental health professionals, and community leaders will lead insightful, interactive workshops focused on the unique experiences of AAPI people and their mental health. You can see them all on the Our Stories, Our Voices information page!
When we speak intergenerationally, we have to find a shared language to have meaningful dialogue. We need a meaningful dialogue to understand the damage done by those in power, and the legacy left to us by those fought and resisted before us. We welcome you to join this conversation with filmmakers Thea Loo and Hao Zhao and therapists Angela Zhe Wu and Lauren Salazar as they explore intergenerational trauma and wisdom, asking how can we learn cross generationally for the benefit of ourselves and our community?
