Asian/Asian American History Month at Brown University
November is Asian/Asian American History Month at Brown University! Initially, I was surprised to hear about this since May is Asian American Heritage Month for the entire US, and it’s great to know that there’s awareness and celebration of Asian and Asian American history on this college campus.
Among the events at Brown in November will be a performance by Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai for the opening convocation event on Monday, Nov. 2nd from 7-9 pm in Brown University’s Salomon Center. Opening for her will be Kai Huang (who delighted us at the last open mic with his freestyling antics about his studious attitude and consternation over President Obama being awared the Nobel Peace Prize), Phil Kaye, and Franny Choi. The event is free, and an excellent opportunity to hear the voices of these vibrant Asian American artists!
