Asian, Pacific Islanders & HIV: Leaders Today, Champions Tomorrow

Thu, 05/20/2010 - 13:25
See video

“We are the children of the migrant worker/ We are the offspring of the concentration camp/ Sons and daughters of the railroad builder/ Who will leave our stamp on America.  We are the children of our Chinese waiter/ Born and raised in the laundry room/ We are the offspring of the Japanese gardener/ Who will leave his stamp on America.  Sing a song for ourselves/ What have we got to lose/ Sing a song for ourselves/ We’ve got the right to chose.

Asians, Pacific Islanders & HIV: Building Leadership

Mon, 05/17/2010 - 13:42

I recently went to a conference in DC about women advocating for HIV services, prevention programs, and awareness campaigns for their communities. Unfortunately, but not surprisingly, of the 40+ women that attended the conference there was only one Asian woman ­­– me—and one Pacific Islander. This is shocking to me as I’ve recently learned that Asian & Pacific Islander men and women (across all sexual orientations) have the highest percentage increase in new HIV infections—higher than any racial or ethnic group in the country.

APAHE Conference 2009... Did anyone know about this?

Thu, 03/26/2009 - 11:23

So it turns out that APAHE was able to get it together for their annual conference, which started yesterday. The program looks pretty interesting with awards to Yuri Kochiyama and Don Nakanishi - both very deserving people to be recognized. Too bad, I didn't know about it until about a week ago that this was going down.
