Reflections of an Asian American Woman"

Time: 7:30PM
Location: Freedom Hall, 113 W. 128th St.

This special meeting will feature an open discussion of this title work by feminist activist and author Mitsuye Yamada. The essay reflects the double invisibility based on being both Asian and a woman. A survivor of the U.S. internment of Japanese Americans during WWII, Yamada makes a powerful statement on the intersections of race, gender, and national identity.

A Pan-Asian dinner will be served at 7pm (donation $8). Door admission free.
