Lily Lam is a content creator and designer based in New York City.  She creates content that speaks to underrepresented voices and is an influencer within the world of Magic: The Gathering.  Today, we talk about gentrification in New York’s Chinatown, cultural identity as Chinese-Americans, and the recent rise of Chinese soft power.  Lily shares her thoughts on deep systemic problems in America and we discuss how American perceptions of China are shaped and how they’re now changing.  We talk about Lily’s personal journey with change and transitioning, its impact on her family, and finding inner peace in a new, yet familiar identity.  We also talk about fashion and how it can be a useful tool in building personal confidence through individual style instead of chasing trends.  This is a heartfelt discussion on identity, acceptance, and change.
