The History Section is convening this roundtable to discuss the need to incorporate AAPI history and culture into K-12 education. Drawing on their rich experiences as scholars, former public school teachers, and community activists, the panelists will address the importance and complexity of the issue and explore the strategies of developing innovative programs and broad partnerships. It is a conversation in hopes of reconstructing the narratives of the nation and renewing the culture of our shared community amid the damage wreaked by the pandemic and by the deeply entrenched racial and social injustice. Roundtable includes: Beth Lew-Williams (Princeton), Jason O. Chang (UCONN), Kathy Lu (Immigration History Initiative), Karen Umemoto (UCLA), & Mark Johnson (Univ. of Notre Dame).
