Where are you from?” is a familiar question to most Asian Americans. This seemingly innocuous question dangerously stereotypes Asian Americans as the perennial other - a stereotype that has been lethal to Asians all throughout history and fuels the rise of anti-Asian hate in recent years.

Join us on Sunday, May 1^st at 12p ET at Lowell Lecture Hall to kick off Asian Pacific American Heritage Month with a compelling storytelling hour.
