"If you know any ethnic grandparents…sometimes they talk to themselves, but sometimes you sit down to actually have a conversation with them and they tell you these amazing stories about how they grew up. And for [my grandmother], a large part of her experience was growing up during the Vietnam War: what it was like to raise my father, her stories of how she became vegetarian. All these things…I was just blown away the way I was able to live through her, through her stories, and feel this sense of empathy and compassion towards her."

Join our host David Chen as we sit down with Tram Nguyen, a junior at Harvard College, for another episode of the Humans of Harvard College Podcast.
