Our Voices Now: A Black and Asian Dialogue to Action – AARP Event

May 24, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

AARP convenes our Asian American and Pacific Islander and Black communities to address the double pandemic of COVID and systemic racism. In this free online event, we explore our overlooked history of working together for positive change and open up the conversation on empathy, healing and our shared vision of tomorrow.

Where do we go from here, and how might we build bridges for multi-generational Asian and Black solidarity? By bringing our communities together, we can move towards our collective physical, mental and financial well-being.

Join author and journalist Paula Madison, the first non-Asian Black K-pop star Alex Reid, and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jose Antonio Vargas in this candid examination of how we got here and how we can uplift Black and Asian communities. Moderated by MSNBC’s Richard Lui.
