Russell C. Leong, poet and editor, will read from his 2015 illustrated graphic poem, MothSutra, based on his living and working Manhattan’s Chinatown and the Bowery, and his study of Buddhism.
The Asian American Mentorship Providing Opportunities to Women for Empowerment and Resilience (AAMPOWER) at CUNY invites you to join us in our next discussion/workshop on “Taking Care of Yourself.”
This event offers an opportunity for you to observe, learn, network, and hear from AANHPI leaders who will offer their perspectives and experiences on leadership development and advancement in the corporate suite.
For this symposium, AAARI has invited students, scholars, community organizers, and/or practitioners to share their innovative research and creative works, pedagogical projects, programmatic efforts, and other activities that address the broad scope of “AAPI Identities.”
