SUMMARY:Race and Space: How Laws Create and Impact Asian Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Since its origins\, America has existed as a racially segregated country. For most of its history\, the law has been used to create and enforce this segregation. With the Reconstruction era’s 13th\, 14th\, and 15th Amendments\, or as historian Eric Foner calls it\, the “second founding\,” the U.S. abolished slavery\, granted citizenship\, and enshrined equality before the law\, at least in principle. And yet\, in fundamental ways\, we still live in a racially segregated country and city. Today\, many Asian New Yorkers shop\, eat\, worship\, reside\, or learn in spaces where they are surrounded by others who look like them. \nThis panel explores several distinct spaces where Asian New Yorkers gather and examines how laws and policies have defined\, developed\, policed\, and shaped these Asian spaces. Featured locations include massage parlors or spas\, New York City’s multiple Chinatowns\, takeout restaurants\, and specialized public high schools. Panelists will discuss how different areas of law such as education law\, criminal law\, immigration law\, and zoning laws impact these places.

SUMMARY:Rising Up to Serve: Leveraging Bar Associations for Community-Centered Lawyering
DESCRIPTION:This panel examines how attorneys and advocates—particularly through bar associations like AABANY—can serve as a critical bridge between legal professionals and the unique legal needs faced by AANHPI and immigrant communities in New York City. Drawing on experiences across immigration\, housing\, employment\, and community advocacy\, the program will explore how attorneys can leverage AABANY and allied bar associations to engage in community-centered lawyering\, respond to emerging issues through coordinated advocacy\, and build partnerships with grassroots organizations. The panel will highlight practical strategies for using bar association participation\, not only for professional development but also as a vehicle for collective action\, leadership development\, and meaningful community impact. \nThe program will include practical frameworks\, real-world scenarios\, and actionable strategies that attorneys can apply in their own practices.

SUMMARY:Buddhist Self-Knowledge Practices: The Sheila and Wilbur Liebson Ethics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, viewing Buddhism from a self-knowledge standpoint\, Professor of Philosophy Christopher W. Gowans (Fordham University) will examine a variety of Buddhist practices—ethical\, philosophical\, and meditative—as these practices have been understood in the traditional “path” approaches (Buddhist practice as a path from suffering to an enlightened life of tranquility and compassion) and the rather different “exploration” approach that emerges in Chan and Zen Buddhism (Buddhist practice as expressing and exploring what it means not to be a self). Among Gowan’s publications is Self-Cultivation Philosophies in Ancient India\, Greece\, and China (Oxford University Press\, 2021).

SUMMARY:Min Jin Lee with Aidan Flax-Clark: American Hagwon
DESCRIPTION:Min Jin Lee’s first novel since the bestselling Pachinko follows one family across decades and continents as they search in schools\, jobs\, churches\, and beyond for meaning and success. Once comfortably middle class in Korea\, John and Helen Koh and their three children—Bo\, DH\, and Mido—find their fortunes twisted and their lives upended\, first by a shocking betrayal by John’s oldest friend\, then by the 1997 Asian financial crisis. Desperately striving to regain their footing\, they leave Seoul for Sydney and eventually settle in Southern California—where new vistas of opportunity open up for the children as their parents\, strangers in a strange land\, must adjust to a new life in which their experience and education mean little\, and they set their sights on whatever it takes to provide for their children’s futures. \nLee speaks with Aidan Flax-Clark\, the Director of LIVE from NYPL\, about crafting the Kohs as well as their friends\, relatives\, and their foes as they move in and out of each other’s lives\, always nursing the almost all-consuming faith that education will lead the next generation to success and security.

SUMMARY:Yiyun Li with Jennifer Egan: Music Against the Night
DESCRIPTION:Yiyun Li’s latest book is Music Against the Night. In Dublin\, as the 18th century nears its end\, a young virtuoso named John Field comes of age as his family nurtures visions of him becoming the next Mozart. His talent takes him to England\, France\, and Russia\, where he becomes a famous pianist and composes dreamy\, languorous melodies that enchant the night air. John calls them nocturnes\, but the prodigy who immortalizes them is Chopin. Oceans away in French India\, Adelaide Percheron has a startling rise of her own. Orphaned and raised by her grandmother\, Adelaide is driven by her secret love of music and a desire to see the world. She engineers her exodus\, escaping to Paris and later to Moscow\, as Napoleon’s army sets out to conquer the continent. As John and Adelaide each try to chart a path between talent and genius\, success and legacy\, profit and passion\, they must decide what\, and even who\, is worth sacrificing along the way. \nLi talks with Jennifer Egan about depicting two aspiring musicians in pursuit of success and bringing to life the sweep and dimension of the Romantic era.
