In creating Joyful Stitch, visual artist and landscape designer Ponnapa Prakkamakul read my essay, “Sky” and my poem, “ My MaMa’s Back” and conducted interviews of myself and other children of garment workers, revealing a thoughtful research process. Thank you very much , Ponnapa Prakkamakul, for your respect for primary sources and your sensitivity to the everyday lives of immigrant people.
