Jot down this #quote on the connection between #allyship and #curiosity! 📝

You simply cannot write about how delicious a taco is for your site or film the most perfect cheese pull for your IG/TikTok/video without diving into the political and socioeconomic undertones involved with that dish. Ethically, in L.A., one cannot exist without the other. 2/2

Like so many folks who felt the Atlanta spa shootings hit close to home, I couldn’t let it go. I didn’t want people to easily forget.
So, I went back. For the past few months, Hyun Jung Grant's sons let me into their lives.
