SUMMARY:Asian American Studies Matters
DESCRIPTION:In its 250-year existence\, the United States has welcomed\, nurtured\, while also barred and deported Americans who hail from all parts of the world. The Asian American experience is at once unique and familiar. From the first migrants to these shores in the late 1500s\, to the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882\, to the incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II\, to the banning and deporting of Asian migrants in the current day\, this complex history is often omitted from US education. This online event brings together Asian Americanists in conversation about the place of AAPI studies curriculum in current K-12 and college classrooms. How can we encourage teachers and schools (K-12 to college) to become more receptive to teaching AAPI histories and experiences?

SUMMARY:Vietnamese Boat People 2026 Story Slam
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a story only you can tell? Vietnamese Boat People is back at the Think!Chinatown Studio for their 7th Annual Story Slam—an evening of live storytelling\, community\, and connection. Starting as the Mỹ Việt Story Slam\, an online performance focusing on stories from the Vietnamese diaspora\, this collaboration with Think!Chinatown features in-person live performances welcoming storytellers from any culture. \nMaybe it’s the word that only exists in your native language\, the one you’ve never found a real translation for. Maybe it’s your name — shortened\, softened\, anglicized\, or swapped out entirely just to make a Tuesday easier — and you’re still not sure how you feel about that trade. \nThis year’s Story Slam theme is about living between two languages — the mistranslations\, the code-switching\, the words that don’t survive the crossing\, and get lost or found somewhere in between. It’s about the moment someone gets something wrong — your name\, your meaning\, your joke — and you let it slide\, or the moment you didn’t. It’s about the words\, names\, and phrases that somehow still trigger something in you\, no matter which language you’re standing in.
