TRANSCRIPT:
HONG: “I wasn’t always aware of the struggles of other communities of color because, for me, assimilation always kind of took over. And so, I did marry — my proximity to whiteness continues, right? My son is biracial. He’s half-white and half-Korean, and I think navigating, you know, what his identity is, and then how people perceive him, is always at the back of my mind as well.”
