AAPI Heritage Month– How to be an Ally to the AAPI Community.

 

Our panel discussion on AAPI heritage and hate was a fascinating look at how to stand up for AAPI women in your community and be an ally in the workplace. We were joined by:

  • Esther Pang, board member of Hollaback! an organization that teaches people how to stand up and end harassment.
  • Sung Yeon Choimorrow, Executive Director of NAPAWF (National Asian  Pacific American Women’s Forum) the nation’s only organization dedicated to building power with Asian American Pacific Islander women and girls.
  • Angela Garbes, working motherhood advocate, author of Like a Mother and host of the Double Shift podcast.

 

Please take the time to watch this hour long conversation about the historical invisibility of AAPI working women and how knowledge and small acts of courage make a big difference!  Thank you to our Head of Product Michelle Pae for moderating the panel and sharing your personal story with us.

 

With AAPI hate crimes at a historic high, we encourage you to check out these organizations, their resources and make a donation to help their work.
