So many leis for 2025, I remember when we first moved here in 2008 folks hardly wore lei for graduation. When my daughter Azby graduated I made her tons of leis because I knew my Ohana could be here. Honored to be a lei maker here in northern Pomo land.

Instead of appropriating cultural symbols and practices, we can celebrate diversity by educating ourselves about these cultures, supporting their communities, and finding ways to appreciate their contributions without misrepresentation.

Cultural sensitivity and appreciation is essential to respect and honor the rich traditions and customs of different cultures rather than reducing them to themes for entertainment or parties. Engaging with cultures in a meaningful and respectful way is crucial.
