Legacy and Recommitment to Advocacy, Equality, Justice for Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and All Racial Groups
Ching, Doris; Agbayani, Amefil
Journal of College and Character, v22 n1 p64-72 2021
Responses to our survey of national community and higher education Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) leaders regarding personal and professional experiences with discrimination are consistent with other reports on AAPI challenges. The diverse AAPI community (6%) is the fastest growing ethnic group in the United States. We are optimistic that progress is underway to address the interconnected challenges of COVID-19, systemic racism, U.S. decennial census, immigration, and 2020 elections. AAPIs must continue to develop strong internal coalitions as well as solidarity with all racial/ethnic groups for equality and against systemic racism. AAPIs "belong" in America and demand voice, visibility, and advocacy.
