On April 25th, Jayson Chang (Professional Development Manager), Toby Wu (Consulting Instructor) led our first in-person cohort session in New York City along with Dr. Jennie Yi (Consulting Instructor) and Leilani Campbell (Administration & Arts Education Assistant). Participants from the Together We Rise cohort met in Chinatown, Manhattan and learned about the cross-racial solidarity between AAPIs and other communities. They engaged in various activities, such as a timeline gallery walk, and in breakout groups on cross-racial solidarity cases. This session served as the kick-off for the second Together We Rise New York cohort. Supplemental programming will follow, more to come soon!

This program is funded by the New York City Council, Education Equity Action Plan, as part of the NYC AAPI Project.

Did you know CHamoru migration to the United States began in the early 1900s and continues today?

Over time, CHamoru families built communities across the U.S. mainland due to labor opportunities, World War II, Typhoon Karen, military service, jobs, and access to healthcare, while staying deeply connected to their home of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands.

What happens when constitutional rights are tested in times of fear and war?

During World War II (1939-1945), over 120,000 Japanese Americans were forcibly removed from their homes and imprisoned without due process.

This workshop invites educators to go beyond the textbook by helping students investigate the Constitution through real historical events. Grounded in critical thinking and historical analysis, this session offers meaningful ways to bring constitutional studies to life in your classroom.
