​ This interview is about my mom and my Aunt when they arrival in America. The first half of the interview is about my mother. She talks about the struggles she have to face when she came to America and how she got to here she is now and how people face her because of her language. I interview my mom in Foochow (A dialogue language). The other half of the interview is about my Aunt. She talks about the struggles she had to face when she arrival in America too. The struggles she had to face, her choices, her mother point of view, etc. Overall, I found this interview interesting.

My Love Note: 

I have passion for recognizing where the boiling belly full of love is, 

You have the burnt remains of what used to hold everything beautiful,

You've been my cradle since birth, 

Somewhere that I can always call home, 

All space in your boiling belly for a black girl in need of home, 

Always leaving room for me even after all the struggles people stomp into your skin of soot. 

You are very much appreciated here. 

You are beautiful, 

Home too all the hurting brown boys wearing bullet proof skin, 

And the girls who can't find their way out of the maze in those boys minds, 

You've been my mother my entire life, 

Your street lights always my guide back to broken beauty,

You, 

West Philly always has room, 

Even with the over population of poverty, 

I try to save you with poetry, 

There is always room, 

You are nothing but a beautifully broken mother birthing boiling belly flu of love.
