Note

This performance is a fundraiser for Inviolate Initiative, a project of the Center for Transformative Action. Inviolate Initiative helps to secure psychological evaluations for immigrant survivors of domestic abuse and human trafficking. These evaluations are completed by mental health professionals and the reports serve as critical evidence in survivors’ immigration cases. Kim is proud to be Inviolate’s artist-in-residence for 2024.

Synopsis

Growing up in a bi-racial home with a white mother and a Vietnamese father, Kim spent years wishing away her father’s less-than-desirable immigrant status, skin color and all the painful family secrets she inherited. Determined to face her demons, she joins a volunteer organization in Vietnam. As she begins to discover the beauty of her roots, she confronts the trauma of her past to put its secrets behind her forever.
