Rebecca Hinson stated, “Nine years ago I had an 'Aha' moment. I was teaching kindergarten students about Maya backstrap weaving. Adham blurted out, ‘Mi abuela make corte!’ and he excitedly shared what he knew. When his teacher came to fetch her class, she exclaimed, ‘What happened to Adham? He’s in the silent phase!’ But that day Adham saw something he recognized, and he wanted to share what he knew.”
