Asian American Resource Workshop is a pan-Asian organization committed to civic engagement, justice oriented organizing, leadership development, political education and base building in Asian American communities. The organization seeks to engage people politically through arts and culture, developing locally conscious organizing skills and grassroots strategy as well as building solidarity relationships. The Sticky Rice Project is AARW’s political education program that focuses on building anti-oppression and anti-racist content through interactive workshops, dialogue and arts and culture. The program is inspired by popular education, oral tradition and storytelling as well as historical research.
Sticky Rice Project’s facilitators will be coming to Williams College on February 23rd to facilitate an immersive experience around Model Minority Myth/Mutiny and Fighting Anti Black Racism. The day will consist of interactive activities, dialogue, art/writing reflections and learning multi-directionally to better understand Asian American identity and how that relates to the responsibility of fighting anti-Black racism. We will be offering resources, concrete action steps and q+a throughout our time with facilitators and those present in the space while uplifting the work that has been done before us to enable these conversations.
