State of Play: Local, National, and Intersectional Responses to Addressing Anti-Asian Violence and Building Durable AAPI Immigrant Power
April 21, 2021
Webinar

NCRP is co-sponsoring “State of Play: Local, National, and Intersectional Responses to Addressing Anti-Asian Violence and Building Durable AAPI Immigrant Power,” a webinar led by Grantmakers Concerned with Immigrants and Refugees (GCIR). While the significant and tragic rise of anti-Asian violence in recent weeks has caught the attention of the general public, coordinated and strategic efforts led by Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) organizations, networks and coalitions to respond to anti-Asian violence have been in place since before the pandemic began early last year. Those efforts have been born of decades-long organizing and advocacy work, work that has been underfunded and invisibilized. Join GCIR for a conversation with local and national AAPI leaders to learn more not only about the narrative, policy and solidarity efforts to address anti-Asian violence but also about opportunities to build durable AAPI immigrant power across the country.
