The Unique Experiences and Narratives of Re-Rooting Among Taiwanese Americans: A Talk

Описание: Growing up feeling there are always missing pieces, the younger generation of Taiwanese are returning home to establish new lives. They search for traces of their parents' childhoods and aim to reconnect with their inner "home."

During this talk, we will explore the discoveries individuals may make about themselves and their identities, the multidimensional challenges they encounter as they strive to re-root and re-anchor themselves in their personal and cultural contexts. In addition, we will discuss the unique healing opportunities that arise during this journey.

Please Note:
This will be the final session of the Taiwanese American Intergenerational Trauma Series. All participants are encouraged to remain afterwards for a group discussion to process the experiences and insights gained throughout the series.Group Processing will start approximately at 20:30.
