The Coalition for Asian American Children and Families (CACF) is leading a collaborative with 39 Asian American community-based organizations to host an Asian American community mayoral candidates’ forum during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
The following candidates have confirmed their attendance: Eric Adams, Art Chang, Shaun Donovan, Kathryn Garcia, Ray McGuire, Dianne Morales, Scott Stringer, Maya Wiley, and Andrew Yang. Participants will be part of one of two 50 minute panels to answer questions prepared by the collaborative around issues related to pandemic recovery and social inequities that will bookend a presentation on rank choice voting by Sandra Choi from MinKwon Center / APA VOICE.
The forum will be simultaneously interpreted into Bengali, Cantonese, Korean, and Mandarin. A recording of the forum will be released in additional Asian languages following the event. Award-winning journalist and PIX 11 reporter Shirley Chan will moderate.
