Ming Holden is a humanitarian worker who has helped people in such far flung places as Nairobi and Mongolia -- and has also written about these experiences. As she puts it, "I will always be a white interloper, whatever else I may be in these situations; I will always not have the full story and not tell it perfectly. It will be problematic until there’s not the inequity between the global south, between black and brown bodies and bodies racialized as white."
Holden talks about how her writing and her life are a single attempt to change the world, and how she earns her keep while doing it.
