I promise you if the hateful of our society didn’t have such a large say in how our country is governed. America would have become the great country we aspired to. Everyday people have been the ones to push the country forward. 🥰

i learned about this fascinating history recently when i found myself wondering why so many nail techs are Vietnamese. my mom's lovely nail tech (who just recently opened her very own salon!!) mentioned going to visit family and it suddenly struck me how seemingly disproportionately many nail techs ive known are from Vietnam! it's such a fascinating story and really highlights the resilience of this group of people finding their way and making their own place in a new country

I adore this part of our history as well. My South LA elementary school welcomed many Vietnamese students, Tinh Nguyen being one of my very first best friends (we were both quiet and tiny)🥰

I can’t wait to watch the documentary! I knew the Tippy Hedron helped the Vietnamese women, but I never thought about how the black community helped drive the nail culture because they truly have!

Vietnamese Women came to America and the first thing they did was empower themselves AND the women around them. If that's not a breathtaking display of humanity IDK what is. 👏

The Birds is my all time fav film and Tippi was a childhood crush and my creative muse. I remember hearing this story some time ago. What a wonderful world we all create when we help one another and work with each other. ❤️❤️❤️

She's also devoted her life to Big Cats, running Shambala Preserve. She actually sleeps in their enclosures with the Big Csts (lions, tigers, etc). She's 95 now, don't know if she still does that, actually, but she's a special soul 💞

I’m 58 and think I’m pretty wise. Then I learn something wonderful like this and I am reminded I still have so much to learn. Thank you Soogia!!

I would get so excited each time the Olympics or any track and field finals were televised so I could see Florence Griffith Joyner’s nails!

I like what you said, that every time you go in to get your nails done you think about this. Thank you so much for educating me on this topic. This will absolutely have me pause for reflection every time I get my nails done. I’m already in awe of the men and women who work in the salons. They do such amazing work and I know I could never make my nails look as amazing as they do. I’ve been going to the same nail technician for over 15 years. She is amazing and everyone in the salon makes it wonderful experience.
