What is Family? What is Culture?
In anticipation of Philip Kan Gotanda’s play Yohen, we invite you to share YOUR photos and stories of relationships and families that bring cultures together:
According to the 2000 Census, almost 7 million Americans identify as multiracial, and the number of interracial couples quadrupled between 1970 and 1995.
Yohen depicts the marriage of an African-American veteran and a Japanese woman who met after World War II, who learn surprising things about themselves and each other after years together. 
What are the cultures that make us? Our country, state, city, neighborhood? Race? School? Religion? Political party? Our secret dreams? We all live in hybrid worlds, and cross boundaries every day.
The SRTP family began with a cross-culture alliance: our founders, Malik Gillani and Jamil Khoury.
Now we’d like to see and hear your stories and photos of cross-cultural families and relationships. Selected entries will be part of an exhibit during the production of Yohen, and will be displayed here on our blog.
To submit your stories, add a “comment” to this post. To submit photos, create an account to make a new post. Or, if you prefer, simply email your photos and stories to litmanage@srtp.org.
We look forward to hearing from you!
