    “Right now the most invaluable resource (besides water) is empathy.”


    This quote from EN’B definitely sets the tone for this episode of Dem Bois Podcast. Today, EN’B shares their journey through music, their cultural identity, and the significance of drumming as a form of meditation and community connection. We also discuss the impact of colonization on cultural practices, humor as a survival mechanism, and the intersections of diaspora and cultural trauma.


    We talk:

    10:02 - Growing up Korean American in Arkansas

    21:19 - The spiritual significance of drumming

    39:46 - Exploring diaspora blues and ancestral connections

    54:07 - Remembering life before colonization

    01:06:03 - Self-love and body awareness
