APEX Express

APEX Express – 6.4.20 API and BLM Solidarity

A weekly magazine-style radio show featuring the voices and stories of Asians and Pacific Islanders from all corners of our community. The show is produced by a collective of media makers, deejays, and activists.

Tonight Hosts Tracy Nguyen and Miko Lee  join our AACRE colleagues to discuss how we as Asian Americans stand in solidarity with #BlackLivesMatter and recognize the anti-Black racism within our own communities. Guests include Nate Tan from Asian Prisoner Support Committee, Fatima Zehra Ladha from Alliance of South Asians Taking Action, Mykhou Vue from Hmong Innovating Politics, and Bianca Mabute-Louie from Network on Religion and Justice.
