The goal of this three day, two night retreat is to bring to the forefront issues that affect Southeast Asians (SEA) and Southeast Asian Americans (SEAA) to gain awareness and take ownership of their identities in order to navigate and explore the SEAA culture as well as the greater community. Historically, the SEA community has lacked visibility in not only higher education, politics, workforce, media, but also our hxstories and stories have faced misrepresentation in our society. This retreat serves as a safe space to share our stories, experiences, and resources to strengthen our bonds in our community. “Consciousness is power” and tomorrow’s world is OURS to build. -Yuri Kochiyama Applications can be turned in via Google form below, or through paper applications attached to this email!
