As part of the RAAR: Rising Against Anti-Asian Racism program, funded by a Campus Climate Award, the AAPI Faculty & Staff Committee will be hosting a screening of the documentary film, Not Your Model Minority (30m) in the Academic Complex Theater on Thursday May 4th, at 3:00PM. The screening is open to the City Tech community.

Following the film will be a discussion, facilitated by Prof. Junior Tidal of the Library Department.

From the New Day Films catalog: “Not Your Model Minority explores the myth and the intersections with past and present anti-Asian violence. The film reveals the ways the model minority myth has been used to create a wedge between communities of color, while also examining opportunities to build power towards addressing systemic racism in America.”

RSVP is not required but encouraged.
