<p>The long-awaited AAPI in Tech group is kicking off its first official meetup, Let’s F*cking Go!!</p>
<p>AAPI In Tech centers people who identify as part of the Asian, Asian American, Pacific Islander community, while welcoming people who not only consider themselves as allies, but also take action toward supporting their AAPI comrades. During the event, we will learn more about PDXWIT’s AAPI in Tech initiative, hear from host company Avenue Agency, lightning speakers and have the opportunity to connect in breakout rooms.</p>
<p>Agenda:
12:00 p.m. - PDXWIT and host intro
12:10 p.m. - Raffle!
12:15 p.m. - Lightning talks
12:30 p.m. - Networking in breakout rooms
1:00 p.m. - Event ends</p>
<p>More about AAPI in Tech:
The group aims to curate a space where AAPI members feel safe and included, so much so that they have the liberty to speak their minds and listen to others with openness.
The group is a place where violence of any kind (verbal or/and physical, online or/and in reality) is not tolerated and civil discussions are reinforced.</p>
<p>The group is also an ally to other communities including but not limited to: the Black community, the Latinx community, the LGBTQ+ community, the disability community, the Indigenous and Native American community, the immigrant community, and so on. It is worth noting that many people belong to multiple communities at the same time. While complexity is to be expected while navigating the ever evolving space of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, it is imperative to acknowledge intersectionality and how it can guide our community through conflicts and issues such as anti-Asian crimes, anti-immigrant rhetoric, the land-back movement, etc.</p>
<p>Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our mission are welcome.</p>

<p>Registration through Zoom is required to attend.</p>
<p>Last year we came together to debunk the model minority myth. This year, join PDXWIT and AAPI in Tech to highlight powerful women who are leading us into the future.</p>
<p>Moderated by Zhou Fang, this conversation will include a panel of leaders in and adjacent to the tech industry including Anna Madill, Padmashree Koneti, and Virginia Luka. Their collective lived experience gives us a glimpse of how communities can rally together, lift each other up, and demolish the bamboo ceiling.</p>

They’ll share stories about what collaborative leadership means to them, and how it’s helped make their organization’s work more impactful. We’ll hold space for community networking in breakout rooms after the main event, but you don’t have to wait until then to meet someone new! Connect with folks in the chat throughout the event.</p>
