Questions for Maya Jupiter

Dear Maya,

Thank you for taking the time to speak with us and share your story. Your story and continuous activism is inspiring to young people everywhere. I have a couple questions for you that I would love to hear your thoughts on:

1) How did growing up in Australia affect your identity and adolescence as you grappled with the two cultures? Were you able to balance the two in your youth or do you feel like you were swayed in one direction?
2) In this article, you are heavily influenced by your older sister, do you believe that you would be where you are today without her guidance? Or that you would've gravitated towards R&B clubs without her introducing you to Salsa and Latin American clubs?
