AAPI is an acronym for Asian American Pacific Isla

AAPI is an acronym for Asian American Pacific Islander. This umbrella term includes people having origins in any of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or Indian subcontinents. It also includes Native Hawaiian, Samoan, Guamanian or Chamorro, Fijian, Tongan, or Marshallese people and encompasses the people within the United States jurisdictions of Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia.

The Mixed Space is so pleased to welcome artist Alex Chester as our May Meetup speaker. Alex first started entertaining audiences as a child in Los Angeles, and after a move to NYC, made her Broadway debut. She's also made guest appearances on "ER", "7th Heaven", and has an upcoming role in "The Good Fight". In her time off set, Alex serves as Editor-in-Chief of the online magazine Hapa Mag (soon to be called Mixed Asian Media), and is the director of Mixed Asian Media Fest - a creative arts celebration of mixed APIs. She's also a member of the first all Asian American Sketch Comedy Troupe, Model Majority. Alex is graduating this May with her BA in dance through St. Mary’s LEAP Program. She is the first person from LEAP to receive the Dean's Award for academic excellence and community engagement.

The model minority myth stereotypes Asian American

The model minority myth stereotypes Asian Americans as a polite group of law-abiding citizens who have achieved greater success than other minority groups through a combination of talent and "pulling themselves up by their bootstraps." This stereotype fails to account for the diversity of cultures, as Asian Americans hail from over twenty countries. It also ignores the discriminatory immigration policies that had given only the wealthiest and most educated Asians the ability to immigrate to the US.

What are other problematic effects are caused by this myth? Reply in the comments below. RSVP to our May Meetup! LINK IN BIO

The Mixed Space is proud to honor the lives and hi

The Mixed Space is proud to honor the lives and history of our AAPI family for our May Meetup. Since 1979, May has been a dedicated time to celebrate Asian/Pacific American heritage, but it wasn't until 1992 that May was officially designated Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month. A former congressional staffer in the 1970s, Jeanie Jew, first introduced the idea of designating a month to recognize Asian and Pacific Americans. In June 1977 the United States House of Representatives made a resolution to proclaim the first ten days of May as Asian/Pacific Heritage Week. In 1992, a law was finalized which expanded the observance to a month. We hope you'll join us on May 8th @ 4 p.m. EST for love, education, and awareness. #aapiheritagemonth #aapi #asianamerican #stopasianhate #stopaapihate #aapicommunity

There are small differences in game-playing style

There are small differences in game-playing style between volleyball in the U.S. and volleyball in Japan. Luckily, Airi Miyabe is enthusiastic about playing both styles. Raised in Osaka by her Nigerian and Japanese parents, Miyabe started playing volleyball at age 8, after a friend asked her to fill in for a missing player. As a high school senior, she competed in the 2015 FIVB Volleyball World Grand Prix. Eager for new athletic challenges, she applied to college in the U.S. and played two seasons at an Idaho junior college before transferring to the University of Minnesota. This outside hitter is now a senior, majoring in Asian & Middle Eastern studies and competing at the highest NCAA level.
