Equity for Asian-American Students with Dr. Lan Kolano and Cat Bao Le


Listen Later

When discussing educational equity for minoritized racial and ethnic groups, many advocates tend to focus on non-Asian students of color. The Asian-American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) category is a massive catch-all demographic that includes groups from Far East Asia, South East Asia, South Asia, and even the Arabian Peninsula. Failure to properly understand the diversity within this group and different experiences would be a tremendous mistake.
