💙💙💙 #Repost @noor ・・・ Shikata Ga Nai - It Cannot be Helped ⠀ This gathering changed my life and is the turning point of #Rep🟦 ⠀ By a wild turn of miraculous and totally unexpected events featuring @m_shinoda, @st_vincent, and @nhinako_makeup...I had the honor of spending time with a group Japanese American elders who were forced to live in US internment camps during WWII. One of the darkest parts of our American History. ⠀ When I started on Rep, I thought I was working on a story about American Muslims but I was thinking too small. The Japanese American community taught me a new level of interconnectedness. ⠀ I call this the “miracle story” and I couldn’t talk about this properly with loved ones for so long because I just wanted people to hear it the way I experienced it. ⠀ Welcome to Chapter 4 of Rep: “Shikata Ga Nai (It Cannot Be Helped) — wherever you podcast. 🟦💙 transcripts available at ays.media/rep
