Suni Lee’s father, up front, John, who built her a balance beam when they couldn’t afford one, was paralyzed falling from a ladder in 2019. She lost two relatives to COVID-19. Can only begin to imagine what this family has endured.
Their daughter is an Olympic champion today. https://t.co/9oBKzkCjBh

I’m adding this post to The Best Websites To Learn About Hmong Culture and History and to A Beginning List For Learning About The 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics.
Opinion | Sunisa Lee didn’t owe the U.S. gold. Her victory is a gift, especially to her Hmong community. A beautiful and devastating tribute by @shania_twinkhttps://t.co/oWdKnNm992
