15 Asian and Pacific American Women Leader Spotlights!
Angry Asian Man, Hyphen Magazine and the National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum present:
The 15 APA Women Leader Spotlights!
The National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum is celebrating 15 years of progressive activism, sisterhood, and justice for Asian Pacific American (APA) women and girls. As the only national multi-issue APA women’s organization in the country, NAPAWF is proud to join forces with Angry Asian Man and Hyphen Magazine to honor the contributions of APA women leaders.
Starting October 24 and over the next 15 days, we are highlighting community leaders – from the labor union powerhouses to the student activists to the working moms who are organizing in their neighborhoods – we celebrate the fierce work of women leaders. And not only are these fearless women leading the way towards social change, they’re also raising funds for NAPAWF in honor of the 15th year anniversary. Cheer these women on by donating on their behalf and support the work of NAPAWF who will continually fight for the rights and issues of our communities.
Here’s to the sisters!
