The forum will explore the roles of Asian American Studies and of higher education institutions in addressing the challenges and opportunities facing Asian American communities. Speakers will discuss how Asian American studies have seeded many grassroots organizations that have been central in building community resilience. They will also discuss the revived movement to advance Asian American Studies and Ethnic Studies, more generally, at the K-12 education level and on college campuses across the country.
