APAP Calendar

LGBT/Pride Week

June is LGBT pride month. We have a variety of queer AAPI's, friends, families and allies posting about their experiences. Thanks to Be DeGuzman, one of APAP's 2009 Unsung Heroes, for coordinating this special week of posts.

To help with our upcoming hate crimes/Vincent Chin week (June 21) or Pacific Islander week (Aug), please let us know. If you have a topic you or your agency would like to coordinate, email us.

My dad died from "complications associated" with Stage IV lung cancer, which, to me, means that the crap treatment he got from the local county hospital made him sicker than he already was.  I flirted with the notion of filing a lawsuit, but concluded it would not be worth the effort -- especially since the impetus for our claims would be that the attending pulmonologist lacked manners and tuned out second opinions.
