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.

DC - Support the Employment Non-Discrimination Act!

Help end job discrimination!

It’s 2010, and in the majority of the country, there are no legal protections from workplace discrimination for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people!

This will change with the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), a federal bill that will ban job discrimination nationwide on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity.  We have the votes in Congress, we have a president who will sign the bill, now we just need to keep the momentum going!
