What is nurturing about AAPIHM?
Seeing and being seen.
Not known, it would be unrealistic to expect even that. In this world where AAPI people are a complicated afterthought. A possible exotic. It would take much more than a corporate-sponsored month to feel known in any significant way.
Existing publicly.
My hope is that this will prompt curiosity to reflection to celebration to advocacy to building together. It is a hope. A mere hope.
Seeing, knowing, nurturing my own existence.
