During the second part of LaGuardia Community College’s Town Hall, we will continue the conversation about the history of anti-Asian racism and violence, how the model minority myth is inextricably tied to anti-Asian racism, and discuss intersectionality and the wider range of issues faced by the Asian American Community that have been magnified during the pandemic.
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.
Since the start of COVID-19, there has been a rise in hate incidents against Asians and Asian Americans on a national scale. Join our distinguished guests and experts for a discussion of the issues and how we can provide better allyship to local AAPI communities.
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.
The United Parent-Teacher Council (UPTC), and Asian American / Asian Research Institute of the City University of New York, invite you to an online forum on Stopping Anti-Asian Hate.
