This episode is the result of many hours of work and some unexpected turns for my American Studies class final project. Sheila L. Hunt, Tracey Jen and Maia Ann are three inspiring women at Purdue who I have met. At first, I did not expect them to have anything in common, however their stories have proved me wrong. They are interconnected to each other through stories and cultures, colors and songs, and their values.

I thank you guys for sharing your beautiful stories with me. Special thanks to my American Studies Professor Pamela Sari for the unexpected turns.
