June 12, 2019, Gammertingen, Germany. I couldn’t find the kinds of foods that I wanted to eat. Everything was mostly bread, butter and cheese.

June 15, 2019: Last day in Gammertingen, Germany. I stopped by the coffee shop downstairs and the server asked me if I was Filipino. I told her that I was American. She asked where my parents were from. It turns out that she use to attend church with a Hmong protestant boy. She said that she was interested in different languages and asked him to say something meaningful. She tattooed it to her body. She asked if I met any Hmong people, and when I said that I did not, she told me “what a pity”. The Hmong reads “Vaajtsws yog kev hlub” or “Jesus is love” in the green Hmong dialect.

I wanted to make a photo at a place where lots of other people were taking pictures. In the crowd I filmed myself looking at the camera, looking at the main attraction, looking at the audience who is not there with me physically, but I hope, are there watching with me from wherever they are.

My great grandmother use to walk around the house wearing her Hmong clothing. Sometimes I see a reflection of her in the clothing that I am wearing and making.

Is it enough that a nation or city is ethnically diverse? What does social responsibility look like? What exactly are people consuming and how does products and food culture affect communities that are under-represented?
