As we celebrate the 25th anniversary of Asian American Studies at Penn, we look forward to building our collective futures as an academic program and community. The recognition of our history demands a renewal of our responsibilities to our communities in the face of anti-Asian racism and increased insecurity resulting from the pandemic. And just as the field of Asian American Studies grows, redefining the scope and approach of its scholarship, our program seeks to expand with a series of new hires, additional course offerings, and a major in Asian American Studies, while relentlessly and unapologetically shaping the conversation of what it means to be Asian American at Penn. Please join us as we explore these issues with Penn scholars, activists, students, and ASAM alumni to visualize our futures together.
