This event, held during Asian Heritage Month, aims to bring together Asian staff and faculty at TMU to address the ongoing realities of racism directed at the South Asian community, foster community connections and celebrate the importance of South Asian and broader Asian solidarity. Through collective dialogue and knowledge-sharing, the event will provide space for personal reflection, expert insights and community-led strategy development.
