Episode description

As they round out AAPI Heritage Month, David is joined by K-6th grade art teacher, photographer, and new mom, Victoria Willis, out of Northern Virginia to discuss being a rare Asian American voice in the public school system, what motherhood has taught her so far, and much more. Vicky also shares what's unique about her Filipina heritage, and how teaching her students how to navigate race conversions has been both challenging as well as life-giving.
