Her work reflects her belief that responsible, powerful storytelling builds understanding and solidarity across borders and across the street. Inye Wokoma is a multi-disciplinary artist, journalist, and executive co-director of Wa Na Wari, a Seattle-based Black arts organization.

Originating from Mindanao, the Philippines—a multi-ethnic, multi-faith island—Romson Regarde Bustillo's family immigrated to Seattle in the late ’70s, joining relatives already rooted there as a result of the Philippines' colonial history with the United States. Raised in South Seattle and the Central District, Bustillo grew up in historically Black, immigrant, and working-class communities shaped by redlining and later impacted by gentrification. This layered cultural foundation, along with extensive travels across the U.S., Southeast Asia, Latin America, Europe, and Africa, informs his artistic practice.
