In partnership with The Quick + The Brave, a culture-first independent platform, our new video series highlights four stories from emerging Amsterdam-based creatives, focusing on empowering different perspectives on cultural inclusivity, community building and self-care.

Our third episode features Amsterdam-based Illustrator & Educational Activist Sioejeng Tsao. Sioejeng uses her art to educate, inform and inspire people about her Asian heritage and uses it as a form of activism against discrimination. "You have to stand in your own power and say this is my spot and I earned a right to be here."
