Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders showed up in 2020, and we won big. But our work isn’t over just yet. AAPI Progressive Action's Post-Election AAPI Progressive Organizing Summit convened AAPI leaders, activists, and organizers to recap our community’s 2020 efforts and discuss our role in this new Biden-Harris era. Topics included lessons learned from 2020, mobilizing for Georgia and beyond, connecting with funders, and securing political appointments in the new administration.
