Activate! Maria Douglas, Hoosier Asian American Power


Listen Later

When Maria Douglas heard about an Asian IU student being stabbed while riding the bus in Bloomington in January 2023, she got mad. Really mad. This hate crime ignited a drive in her to fight racism in Indiana through Hoosier Asian American Power, an organization recently reinvented to focus on civic engagement among Indiana’s Asian-American community.
