Fabian Debora is really interesting due to his openness and humility. He had an inspiring journey into becoming the artist he is today. He is very straightforward about his past and doesn't let prior life experiences bar himself or the people he works with from being responsible and engaged community artists.
A second takeaway is that he approaches everyone he works with an equal footing. He supports and acknowledges each person he's working with so that everyone is a part of the conversation and feels comfortable. It's good to consider that you can't engage the community if you aren't engaging the individual.
The final takeaway is how important it is to have someone from the same community or, at least, a similar background to work with marginalized groups. Fabian being able to connect with the communities he works with allows him to better support and encourage them.
