For Asian Heritage Month in May, a Gold Ribbon Campaign will be launched to show support and solidarity to stop anti-Asian racism. Reclaiming the color "yellow' that has been used historically to disparage our race will be celebrated by wearing yellow/gold ribbons. I am connecting with sponsors and supporting organizations to build momentum to the campaign. 

A donation target is also initiated to raise money that will benefit, support, and strengthen Asian communities. This is an international campaign

First, I thought that ZOOM was incredible in how they could set up sessions where the panelists/presenters speaking could be seen if their videos were on, but none of the attendees could be seen. The chat function was optional for the presenter to view (I chose to have mine off until the end so I wasn't distracted when I was presenting). Parthenon and the PSI Staff had their videos there too to support the presenters, but they weren't visible to the attendees. I found the ease of coming in and out of sessions, jumping back in, etc., to be so user-friendly. The presenters and attendees were not
