Asian American / Asian Research Institute
The City University of New York
Join the Asian American / Asian Research Institute for a guided gallery tour of “C.C. Wang: Lines of Abstraction,” led by Margaret Liu Clinton. C. C. Wang is best known as a preeminent twentieth-century connoisseur and collector of pre-modern Chinese art, a reputation that often overshadows his own art.
Join us for a discussion of the feature film, Happy Cleaners (2019), a heartfelt story that celebrates the survival of immigrants, the experiences of the Korean American community, and the value of family.
Join us for a virtual conversation to learn more about the current AANAPISI projects at CUNY: QCAP (Queens College AANAPISI Project) and HCAP (Hunter College AANAPISI Project), which includes the ABI (AANAPISI Bridge Initiative), in collaboration with BMCC.
Co-editor Rose Kim will discuss the origins of the book and read from her chapter, “Twenty Years at CUNY: A Political Coming-of-Age.” Prof. Kim will be joined by contributor Linda Luu who will read from their chapter, “Resistance Everywhere We Went: The Fight for Asian American Studies at CUNY.”
The CUNY Ethics and Morality Essay Contest is funded by an endowment gift of $100,000 to the City University of New York by Dr. K. York Chynn and his wife Noelle Chynn. This annual award is intended to promote and stimulate thinking by college students at CUNY about the topic of ethics, morality, and virtuous behavior in their lives.
The Scholarship awards $1,000 to an individual qualified undergraduate student that is currently enrolled at any of the twenty-one colleges within CUNY, Asian or non-Asian, who has demonstrated creativity in the communication of the concerns of the Asian American community in areas such as health, education, culture, media or advocacy/activism.
