I interviewed John who participated in the workshop and he seemed to be very impressed with Linda. He said that Linda Ohama was very honest and open. She gave very moving talks and showed very moving films. She is someone who works very hard at her craft and thinks very deeply about her work and all the people around her. She stresses that family is important because family is where you come from. It includes your own family and the family of your ethnic group. This is something we should all remember and feel good about even though there is much prejudice in the world. Through taking part in her workshop, we started to look into our life honestly, John said. He also said that he will keep in touch with her over the years to come.
