Joyce and Xiao-Yin Chen | 'I'm from here now'

  • Summary

  • On this episode, Dan Wu introduces us to mother-and-daughter duo Joyce Chen and Xiao-Yin Chen. Joyce reflects on her early life in China and how she ended up in Harlan, Kentucky (which wasn't full of chicken farms, to her surprise). As a mom, she was determined that Xiao-Yin wouldn't miss out on any typical American experiences, and would have opportunities beyond working in Chinese restaurants or being laser-focused on academic achievement. So Yin grew up with few limitations, doing everything her friends did. Now that she's an adult, and living in a bigger city with more Asian Americans, she's intentional about deepening her connection to her Chinese heritage.
