As we are celebrating the founding of America for 250 years, “The American Moment” event is about reclaiming what it means to belong, to be seen, and to honor our unique contribution—on your own terms.
A gathering where:
- Stories replace stereotypes
- Expression replaces silence
- Connection replaces division
This is where Asian Americans and allies come together—not to fit into America, but to co-create what America is becoming.
