It is what it is.

When We Speak for Ourselves

Please show some love and support for my very good friend, Terisa Siagatonu. She is the most inspiring, empowering, dedicated, and amazing individual that I have had the pleasure to know. Her video is entitled: “When We Speak for Ourselves”

For those who may not know, back in November, I entered the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders “What’s Your Story?” video challenge. Out of 200 submissions, my video has been chosen as one of 11 finalists, competing for the chance to go to the White House to share the story of not only myself, but of my P.I. youth and community. It would mean so much to me if you could vote for my video entitled “When We Speak For Ourselves”. Deadline to vote is March 1st! Spread the link to your friends/family! NOTE: You can only vote once PER email address, so yes: you can vote multiple times (don’t forget your work and AOL email addresses. ha.) Fa’afetai tele lava to each and every one of y’all for your support and love throughout this journey. I promise that none of it ever went/will go unnoticed.

Love,
Risa
