We're so proud of our director of programs, Ratha, for serving as the keynote speaker and receiving the Alumni Honoree Award at San Francisco State University's Asian American Studies graduation celebration. 🎓💜
In her speech, she reflected on how powerful it was to learn about the Southeast Asian American experience while she was a student in the program.
She reminded graduates that it's OK to be angry about the injustices our communities have faced, but that we must channel that anger into knowledge, love and action.
Congratulations to all of this year's graduates, and congrats to Ratha on this well-deserved honor!
