NAPAWF*Sacramento Celebrating 15 years of making history in the Asian Pacific Islander Women Movement

As NAPAWF reflects on the last 15 years of our organizational history and remembers the trailblazers that have made this longevity possible, NAPAWF*Sacramento will present “15 Historically Significant Moments in Asian and Pacific Islander Women History” over the course of the week of December 5, 2011.

Earlier this Fall, NAPAWF Bay Area profiled 15 of the fiercest Asian and Pacific Islander women leaders among us today, as nominated by their peers.  We learned about their passions, the people who inspire them and the movements they lead.  NAPAWF*Sacramento was inspired to build on this momentum by taking a look back in history and trace some of our roots as Asian American women.  We hope that this will provide a renewed perspective for some, a refresher for others and, ultimately, ignite collective action to build a movement for social justice and human rights for all Asian and Pacific Islander women and girls.

“15 Historically Significant Moments in Asian and Pacific Islander Women History” Begins Here
