Combating Anti-Asian Violence
The COVID-19 pandemic has fueled xenophobia and anti-Asian racism and violence. But Asian Americans have experienced racism long before the pandemic. At this event, we will talk about this important history, as well as more recent Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) experiences around COVID-19 related racism. We will address race-related stress and healing, share resources to protect our communities, and provide opportunities to build solidarity with the larger LaGuardia community.
This event is in collaboration with Project DIVE (Diversity, Inclusion & Valuing Equity), the LaGuardia Community College Asian Heritage Committee (AHC), and the Asian American / Asian Research Institute – CUNY
