It is such a strange (read: healing) experience shifting from the English Department to Ethnic Studies & Asian American Studies. Just. Wow.

Also, can we talk about this summit centering upon gratitude for simply being with one another, affirming that we see each other, & validating the importance of our individual cultural practices, processes, experiences, & responses?! It's going to be a great year.

Combine the work of educating and illuminating BIPOC stories in classroom + the growing work and opportunity to represent brilliant BIPOC stories as an agent, & what growth of visibility, affirmation, & empowerment can we nurture forward?
