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 “Leading with Resilience: A Workshop on Leadership Styles and Navigating Microaggressions.”
The Asian American Mentorship Providing Opportunities to Women for Empowerment and Resilience (AAMPOWER) at CUNY group aims to build a community of practice that offers a safe and inclusive space for discussing and sharing issues concerning the Asian and Asian American experience in higher education.
Participants will learn about the importance of creating a platform for collaboration and synergy among AAPI leaders who have reached the position of president/chancellor in higher education, and a sustainable pipeline to support ascending AAPI leaders.
Editors Nicholas D. Hartlep and Daisy Ball will discuss their new book, Racial Battle Fatigue in Faculty which examines the challenges faced by diverse faculty members in colleges and universities. Highlighting the experiences of faculty of color in higher education across a range of institutional types, chapter authors employ an autoethnographic approach to the telling of their stories.
Taking into account considerations of immigration, race, gender, and diaspora, AAARI’s 2019 annual conference asks: What does the meteoric rise of Trumpian racist white nationalism say about the nature of systemic racism in our country today? Why is it now primarily and explicitly rooted in anti-Mexican and anti-Muslim nativist racism, and where do Asian American Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) — their diverse ethnic groups — fit (or not fit) in these citizenship orders? How has the higher education research community and the activist community collaborated and how can they continue to strategically collaborate together?
