My memory of Niki: Laura Gabriela, Niki's daughter

My name is Laura Gabriela, and I'm Niki's daughter. I remember Niki as the wise Nikigator.

Niki was undaunted by opposition. She wasn't afraid of being attacked. On the contrary, she took it all as a response, and it stimulated her and it gave fuel to her fire and she knew that she was on the right track and she had more to do and it just kept her going.

As a kid, I was a little scared sometimes. Because these artists bring things that are new, and there's a lot of hostility that shows up sometimes. But I understand that she knew how to play the game of life, and she knew how to respond creatively, and she never lost her focus, and she used the opposition to keep going. And I'm still learning from that.

Listen to the audio version.
