May 10th: AAPI Film & Discussion Series

Noon to 2PM
Every Saturday in May

This May we will explore the ongoing role that Asian Americans have played in shaping the United States. Join us each Saturday as we screen one episode of the film series Asian Americans and discuss AAPI heritage and identities with special guest speakers.

Space is limited. Please register.

An American-born generation straddles their country of birth and their parents’ homelands in Japan and Korea. Those loyalties are tested during World War II, when families are imprisoned in detention camps, and brothers find themselves on opposite sides of the battle lines.
