On the latest episode of They Call Us Bruce, we welcome Pawan Dhingra, professor and provost at Amherst College and current president of AAAStudies. He talks about the new AAPI Studies program at Amherst -- the first of its kind for liberal arts colleges. blog.angryasianman.com/2024/04/they-c…

Great conversation with Phil Yu and Jeff Yang on the status of Asian American Studies, AAAStudies, and the new major in AAPI Studies Amherst College (including a chat about Hyper Education)

For They Call Us Bruce, Jeff Yang 🫶 FOLLOW ME @ORIGINALSPIN ON THREADS/IG & Phil Yu interviewed AAAStudies President Pawan Dhingra on the state of Asian American Studies: theycallusbruce.libsyn.com/235-they-call-…

The Association for Asian American Studies writes to strongly support and affirm students, communities, and campus protestors in their call for an end to complicity in Palestinian genocide. Full statement available here: aaastudies.org/advocacy-state…

We are deeply saddened at the passing of Professor Gary Okihiro. Gary was a teacher, mentor, activist, and friend to several generations of scholars. He was a beloved and vital presence in the building of our Association and of the field itself. aaastudies.org/announcements/…

Glad to share my piece on how Asian American Studies programs have grown - often in response to national tragedy - and how the field (including AAAStudies ) should expand as well theconversation.com/expansion-of-a… via The Conversation U.S. Amherst College AAAS Social Science Caucus

"In the past two years, for example, the Association for Asian American Studies...has stressed the need for more attention to the study of Asian America in social sciences..." Thoughtful piece from former AAAS president Pawan Dhingra.

Kudos to Asian American groups and activists who pushed The Asian American Foundation to drop ADL's Greenblatt from its board. And also: replacing JG with another ADL rep who's Asian American and reaffirming the groups' "strategic relationship" completely misses the mark. taaf.org/news/taaf-affi…

#AmherstCollege's new #AAPI major is the first of its kind for a small liberal arts college. A culmination of efforts by faculty such as Pawan Dhingra (Pawan Dhingra), alumni, students and more, Diverse: Issues In Higher Education chronicles the endeavor from start to success. bit.ly/3zzvxDu

Was live yesterday on Scripps National News talking about why Vice President JD Vance Harris needs to go beyond references to coconut trees (which are wonderful, let's be clear) to make the case to Asian Americans video.snapstream.net/Play/oVcbA4D0O…

Trump says you can be EITHER Asian OR Black. The history of Black and Asian solidarity belies that framing. My op-ed on how Vice President JD Vance Harris' biography shows an alternate way of thinking of Black-Asian history and solidarities. #CNN #NABJFactCheck cnn.com/2020/08/19/opi…

Insightful piece by Sam Sommers and Dr. Sarah Gaither on what's wrong with racial essentialisms and how that shapes Trump's thinking. Opinion | Why Kamala Harris' biracial identity upsets Donald Trump so much msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-… via MSNBC

#KamalaHarris is the first woman of color to receive a major party presidential nomination. Pawan Dhingra (Amherst College) notes that while shared backgrounds interest voters, candidates can't rely on that alone. Khaleda Rahman, Newsweek: newsweek.com/kamala-harris-…

VP Harris needs to do more than reference her upbringing to reach AAPI voters. My latest piece. FYI Arun Venugopal Jeff Yang @prof_erikalee @DrJenHo Janelle S. Wong janellewong.bsky.social S.

How can Kamala Harris bring out the AAPI vote? Hint, referencing her mother is just the start. My new piece.
