AAOP to hold Asian Heritage Month event

The Asian American Organizing Project will hold an API Heritage Month event on May 15 to honor the history and connections of the diverse Asian American people of the Twin Cities.

The free event will include food, an interactive timeline activity and other conversation-starting activities, and reflections of personal journeys. The intent is to strengthen participants sense of care and support of the community, and to affirm the many identities Asian Minnesotans – ethnic, gender, sexuality and others.

The purpose is also to view the broader community as a strength to resist the current administration’s fascist and authoritarian agenda.

The event will be held 5 to 8 p.m. at DK Training Center, 1821 University Avenue West, Suite 242, St. Paul.
