Catherine and Anna were adopted from Korea, and for 50 years didn't know the other existed. In July, they were reunited with each other in DFW - the reunion was beautiful, as were their stories of how they got there @dallasnews w/ @slbevis @shafkat_07 dallasnews.com/news/2024/08/1…

This year’s Ramadan was one of my eventful time in Dallas. I spent a chunk of that month with the “uncles and aunties” who fostered a community at the Wingren Village in Irving, TX. It was a home to dozens of South Asian families from late 1980s thru early 2000s. With @hjnchoi

My 24-hour journey to Edmonton in photos:
