Holland & Knight's Diversity Council and Asian/Pacific Islander (API) Affinity Group are proud to celebrate Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month and pay tribute to the generations of Asians and Pacific Islanders who have enriched America's history and continue to play a role in its future success. The past year has seen a sharp uptick in hate against the API community, making it all the more important to ensure that its members feel supported, seen and heard as Americans. This year, we took time to reflect on how we could better support our API colleagues, sitting down with attorneys and staff to have important conversations about racial justice and allyship. Throughout the coming weeks, we will be presenting a video series showcasing some of these conversations. We hope that the stories conveyed in these videos help advance dialogue around API Heritage Month as well as lead to further discussions of how we can be better allies to our API friends, family and colleagues.
In this video, Asian/Pacific Islander Affinity Group Chair Stacey Wang, a partner in our Los Angeles office, introduces the series and previews other events comprising our Heritage Month programming. See less -
