I am really excited to bring this symposium to my campus next weekend! I have worked hard for the past few months with a super talented team of colleagues at Puget Sound and at the Chinese Reconciliation Project Foundation! Recognizing the intersections of racial and gender biases against Asian American women, this symposium aims to share stories of challenges and triumphs in the lives of three accomplished Asian American women leaders, and engage our students and the community in a discussion about workplace diversity, breaking through the bamboo ceiling, and other race and gender related issues, particularly in light of the recent surge of anti-AAPI violence and racism.
