あらすじ・解説
We're kicking off AAPI Heritage Month with Linh Nguyen, Senior Advisor for RUN AAPI.
We talk about being the only Asian women at the table in politics, how to get more AAPI Gen Z to get excited about and involved in politics, the importance of AAPI representation in politics, and how to better serve the Asian American community in politics. We even discuss results from one of the first, if not only, surveys on AAPI Gen Z and how they feel about the political climate and asian representation.
