Shroq Al Ramadi is the founder of Takween Culture Club, which exists to revive Hadhrami culture. Shroq speaks about the importance of these efforts during a time of political conflict and war that has threatened to strip Hadhrami society of its traditions and cultural identity. Her efforts to research and preserve Hadhrami culture include her graduation project, which is a plan for the Hadhrami House Museum for Art. Although life-saving aid is prioritized in a time of war, Shroq reminds us that reviving socio-cultural identity can also bring people together and play a role in the process of charting a path forward—a path to peace. Shroq tells the Yemeni youth, “I know that we are looking for hope, but we need to remember that we are the hope!”
