A
A
B
So
happy
to
be
here.
Thank
you
all,
for
speaking,
we
are
going
to
hear
some
very
important
information.
It
is
National
Heritage
Month
for
API
communities,
and
it's
an
unusual
time
for
us
to
be
meeting
in
this
way.
Virtually
one
of
the
things
that
many
of
us
know
an
API
communities
is
that
we
are
sometimes
forgotten.
The
racial
dynamic
black
and
white
in
the
u.s.
B
Right
up
to
people
who
have
immigrated
very
recently,
and
the
category
of
a
API
of
asian-americans
is
a
political
category,
and
so
we
want
you
to
hear
the
stories
of
different
AAPI
community
leaders
right
now.
We
want
you
to
understand
some
of
what's
going
on
some
of
the
things
that
may
not
be
on
everyone's
radar
and
even
among
Asian
American
communities.
I
can't
know
every
story,
so
you'll
hear
from
some
people
who
will
share
what
they're
seeing
right
now
and
we
hope
that
we
all
be
better
able
to
stand
in
solidarity.
B
B
They
started
doing
once
again
a
racialized
look
of
black
and
white,
which
is
very
important
given
histories
of
oppression
of
other
black
communities
in
the
u.s.,
but
they
haven't
even
started
doing
it
by
gender.
One
of
the
major
defining
factors
they
in
terms
of
health
issues
might
actually
lead
to
life
or
death
conditions.
We
don't
know
what's
happening
with
women
who
are
pregnant.
B
That
means
that
people
who
are
Asian
are
not
simply
defined
by
that,
but
they're
defined,
as
is
the
rest
of
the
country
in
the
rest
of
the
world
by
their
values
by
their
upbringing
by
their
language,
by
their
citizenship
status
by
their
ability,
and
so
the
folks
on
today
will
be
speaking
with
us,
will
give
us
some
very
valuable
insights.
We
are
going
to
start
with
keratin
Cena,
who
it's
going
to
each
of
the
speakers.
B
It
is
going
to
answer
a
brief
description,
how
they
responded
to
questions
we
provided
them
in
advance
and
then
we'll
have
a
Q&A
at
the
and
we'll
remind
you
how
to
ask
questions.
We
want
you
to
be
able
to
share
either
season
number
that
either
gave
you
or
on
Facebook
and
we'll
do
our
best
to
answer
those
questions.
But
first,
let's
hear
from
two
local
leaders,
after
which
we'll
hear
from
statewide
leaders
and
I'm,
going
to
turn
it
over
to
Kara.
B
C
Thank
You
Anupama
as
introduced.
My
name
is
Kara
team
synergy
director
at
the
Bhutanese
community
association
of
this
birth,
so
activism
for
the
Bhutanese
community
is
limited
to
to
the
understanding
of
a
lot
of
what
is
going
on
in
the
field
of
politics,
because
we
come
from
such
a
background
where
civic
engagement
was
very,
very
limited.
The
community
is
still
growing
up
understanding
what
is
happening
at
the
national
level
or
at
our
state
and
local
level.
C
C
So
when
we
don't
know
those
is
really
difficult
to
to
cast
vote
while
we
are
casting
to
go
to
a
particular
candidate,
so
sometimes
there
is
no
option
except
to
go
by
deep
the
political
lines
and
and
to
my
understanding
that
is
not
going
to
be
much
useful
in
the
coming
elections.
So
that
is
one
area.
C
The
challenges
if
I
have
to
mention
here
finding
resources
to
meet
the
committee
needs
is
a
challenge
for
the
bookings
company
here
in
Facebook
and
I
think
it
applies
to
most
other
community
organizations
across
the
state
of
Pennsylvania
and
and
even
in
the
country.
Families
asks
for
rental
assistance
for
assistance
with
new
utility
bills
and
I'm
talking
about
the
current
situation,
and
we
have
no
such
solid
answers
to
give
them,
because
we
still
struggle
to
find
resources
for
them
as
a
person.
C
Many
foundations
do
not
have
faith
in
smaller
company
organizations
that
are
still
in
their
early
phases.
So
there's
a
challenge
for
B
cap
and
I'm
sure
that
would
be
for
some
other
come
to
organizations
too.
So
we
need
operational
support
to
do
any
programming,
and
that
is
hard
to
get
so
that
is
another
struggle.
I
have
experienced
myself
I
think
we
don't
stand
different
from
other
communities
with
regards
to
how
we
best
engage
our
youths
at
all
times
and,
of
course,
this
risk.
C
The
current
time
it
has
been
I
think
that
the
toughest,
especially
for
parents,
moms
and
dads
at
home,
we
have
seen
single,
moms
and
dads
struggling.
We
had
seen
before
the
pandemic
and
that
that
has
gone
even
worse
now.
So
these
were
some
of
these
challenges
we
currently
face
during
the
current
situation
on
Obama.
C
B
Just
reminded
not
to
speak
without
checking
my
mute
button
and
yet
I
did
that
I
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you
so
very
much
what
you
said
so
important
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
our
next
speaker.
We
will
then
come
back
and
to
follow
up
on
some
things
see
if
there
are
questions
for
the
speakers.
Unfortunately,
bulla
can't
stay
on
until
7:00
p.m.
we're
so
pleased
that
they
made
time
to
be
with
us
on
the
call
bola
I'll
ask
you
the
same
questions.
What
does
activism
on
behalf
of
the
AAPI
communities?
D
Here,
whatever
we
pick
this
year
in
the
new
environment
is
like
very
a
big
difference
so
due
to
that
one
really,
if
people
are
struggling,
you
know
like
accessing
those
thing
available.
There
might
be
options
to
explore
or
accept
them,
but,
like
just
the
barrier
is
like
language,
you
know
like
not
understanding
the
things.
Sometimes
people
have
like
education
about
like
talking
about
like
a
privacy
or
like
confidentiality
thing.
These
are
some
of
the
things.
D
So
it's
really
a
tough
just
because
of
the
barriers
are
some
of
the
differences
in
lifestyle
back
home
here
so
covering
up
that,
like
second
part,
like
biggest
challenges
being
alike
myself
from
the
community
we
are
facing
here,
is
not
able
to
understand
the
system.
The
first
one
you
know
like
so
I'd
like
to
base
all
these
things
like
I,
would
like
to
talk
the
things
based
on
my
like
work
experience,
so
I
think
it
would
be
better.
D
You
know
like
so
since
I
work
as
an
like
advocate
at
women's
Southern
insulter,
as
in
DV
advocate,
so
most
of
the
people
I'd
like
to
clarify
what
does
a
women's
and
insulted
W
CNS
is
so
we
are
deviancy
and
we
work
pretty
much
based
on
PBR
IP
be
related
issues.
You
know
like
we
work
with
a
survivor
of
domestic
violence
and
into
my
partner
violence.
So,
right
now
in
Heligan,
County
everybody.
D
Whenever
we
talk
about
like
a
DV
or
IBB
situation,
it
doesn't
discriminate
anyone
or
regardless
of
your
race,
like
your
socioeconomic
status,
who
you
are
what
you
came
from.
What's
your
ethnicity,
it
doesn't
matter,
it
happens
for
anybody
at
any
time.
So
a
lot
of
people
have
like
his
difficulties
in
accessing
those
available
resources
to
solve
their
issues
or
meet
their
needs
related
to
intimate
partner,
violence
and
domestic
violence,
and
especially
in
this
pandemic,
many
of
the
people
they
have
like
extra
barriers
now.
D
So
let
me
address
like
how
what
are
the
common
challenges
like
people
as
I'll,
just
like
to
point
out?
Some
of
the
things
like
all
of
the
services
that
we
provide
to
our
community
is
directly
impacted
by
this
pandemic.
Kabat
19.
There
is
a
challenges
in
creating
a
safety
planning
for
the
survivor,
readable
partner
violence,
so
legal
system
has
been
completely
impacted,
so
all
of
the
non-resident
services
that
we
do
for
our
survivors
are
stuffed
temporarily.
D
Outreaching
to
community
partners
have
been
disturbed
so
even
like
police
call,
if
somebody
call
like
9-1-1
at
the
moment
to
address
their
intimate
partner,
violence
situation,
the
response
from
police
department,
the
use
of
interpreter
for
non-english
speakers.
Everything
has
been
like
challenging
right
now,
and
that
is
a
main
point
to
understand.
As
I
said
that
domestic
violence
do
not
discriminate
anyone,
it
doesn't
like
consider
any
situation
on
anything.
It
can
happen
at
any
time.
This
there
is
a
increase
in
severity
and
frequency
of
domestic
violence
in
this
pandemic
situation.
D
Right
now,
so
there
are
lots
of
things.
We
are
respecting
CDC
guidelines
and,
if
I
have
to
talk
about
like
statewide
in
Pennsylvania,
all
of
the
bebe
servers
are
open,
but
all
besides
Sanders
services,
all
other
services
are
offered
remotely
and
as
governor
or
the
country
is
already
has
that
order
of
homie
stay.
So
when
there
is
a
family
state
time
that
census
of
having
like
more
violence
situation,
we
see
that
more
and
more
children
are
witnessing
the
situation
of
domestic
violence
inside
the
home.
At
this
pandemic
situation.
D
Let
me
share
a
brief
Dada's
of
Allegheny
campus,
since
we
saw
everybody
within
Allegheny
County.
If
you
go
and
see
the
police
call,
it's
really
high
related
to
intimate
partner
violence.
Huiling
PFA,
going
down
at
has
been
completely
down
by
33
personnel
like
33
percent
down
is
like
use,
use
impact.
We
can
say.
San
abuse
report
is
down
by
44
percent,
even
our
Women's
Center,
once
ultra
hard
trying
also
has
been
down
by
25
percent.
So,
looking
at
this
statists,
you
know
like
the
data
we
can
see
that
that
is.
D
On
the
other
hand,
there
is
a
severity
and
frequency
of
having
a
domestic
violence
issue
is
high
and
people
have
like
limited
chances
of
getting
these
problems
solve
on
other
hand.
So
we
have
a
fear
but
well
saying
that
doublet
Women's,
Center
and
sorrow
is
still
available.
We
provide
same
services
to
everyone,
adding
intimate
partner,
violence
or
domestic
violence
list
of
your
like
gender,
ethnicity.
Whirring
from
what
language
you
speak,
it
doesn't
matter.
D
We
provide
same
quality,
successful
everyone,
even
in
this
panda
meat
situation,
and
we
added
some
of
the
faces
just
before
you
have
seen
our
website
pace
displayed
on
like
to
the
second
part.
So
if
you
go
in
our
website
and
see,
you
can
find
this
information.
How
women
centre
line
selector
is
responding
to
this
pandemic.
Rabbit
19
situation,
addressing
your
needs
for
survival
of
intimate
partner,
violence.
Everything
is
included
in
our
website.
You
can
see
right
now
there.
D
So
if
you
have
any
question,
if
you
cannot
speak
English,
we
have
included
multilingual
information
up
there
and
the
very
cool
feature
thing
I'd
like
to
address
here.
Yes,
recently,
we
restarted
tags
and
shot
now
arson.
That
is
like
anybody
from
any
part.
You
can
just
text
to
us
or
the
number
and
ask
your
question
actually.
So
we
have
advocate
available
24/7,
for
that.
So
I
would
like
to
call
our
number
from
here
and
you'll
get
this
information
on
live
event
and
we'll
try
to
address
this
number
there
also.
D
So
our
text
and
chat
number
is
two:
four:
zero,
two
four
nine
seven,
eight
six
seven
and
yes,
this
normal
is
also
available
in
our
website.
You
can
find
out
or
if
you
go
like
most
of
the,
like
majority
of
our
people,
use
social
media
Facebook.
So
if
you
go
in
our
Facebook
page,
like
women's
and
the
ventilator
Facebook
you'll
find
this
information
here
also.
So
if
you
have
a
legal
needs,
if
you
have
to
just
meet
with
any
considerations
or
anything,
so
all
this
information,
you
can
achieve
this
through
tax
and
shut
awesome.
D
You
may
have
a
questions
like
why
not
we
call
like
hardline?
Why
not?
We
call
you
guys
and
just
please
set
up
in
the
sidelines.
As
I
said,
everybody
we
are
like
korean
chill
right
now
at
home,
so
anybody
can
be
with
abuse
together.
So
you
cannot
make
a
call.
You
had
that
safety
concern
there,
so
just
to
cover
up
that
one.
You
can
still
existing
with
your
episodes.
D
D
You
know,
like
your
transportation
kind
of
things,
so
in
this
panda
make
the
best
way
if
you
have
an
issue
of
intimate
partner,
violence
or
baby
related
issues
that,
if
you
have
any
sense,
if
you
have
issues,
if
you
hear
ECU
about
your
friends
family,
not
for
yourself,
you
can
still
utilize
our
text
and
chat
options
and
just
get
connected,
so
we
will
love
to
provide
full
service
with
the
same
clarity
to
everyone,
even
in
this
pandemic.
We
re
still
here
to
support
here.
That's
all!
Thank
you
on
the
phone.
Oh
thank.
B
You
and
I'm
so
glad
I
didn't
cut
you
off.
There.
I
really
appreciate
that
I
wanted
to
repeat
the
website:
WCS
Pittsburgh
org,
that's
the
Women's
Center
in
shelter
and
I'm,
going
to
share
my
screen
in
a
moment,
but
you
can
go
there
and
I
think
boa
was
making
the
excellent
claim
that
you
can
text
you
can
chat.
There
are
ways
that
you
can
more
easily
reach
out
that
we
know
people
are
struggling
and
they're
struggling
in
their
supposed
safety
at
home,
and
this
is
a
gender-based
problem.
B
The
gender
equity
Commission
hosted
a
town
hall
and
so,
in
addition
to
the
Women's,
Center
and
shelter
website,
once
again,
that's
w
CS,
Pittsburgh
org,
which
I
highly
encourage
everyone
to
there's.
A
lot
of
information
bullet
pointed
out
that
information
is
translated
into
many
languages.
I
also
want
to
encourage
you
to
look
at
the
video
of
a
town
hall
that
the
gender
equity
Commission
hosted
in
April
and
we
have
resources
and
you
can
hear
Nicole
Mullen
Molinaro,
who
is
the
Women's,
Center
and
shelter
trader.
B
Pittsburgh
is
leadership
there
and
we
have
resources
for
local
communities,
including
domestic
violence,
intimate
partner
violence.
Other
things
that
are,
we
know
are
affecting
people
differently
in
terms
of
gender
LGBTQ
people
are
also
vulnerable,
and
the
Women's
Center
in
shelters
Paula
mentioned,
does
not
turn
anyone
away
based
on
gender
identity
or
gender
expression,
and
so
we
really,
if
there's
a
way
that
we
can
honest
during
this
discussion
or
later.
B
If
you
have
questions
bolos
with
us
for
a
few
more
minutes
and
I'm
gonna
post
some
questions
but
I'll
be
getting
examples
of
what
people
would
like
to
have
addressed,
and
if
we
can,
we
will
do
that,
but
to
leave
you
with
the
gender
equity
Commission
web
page,
that's
Pittsburgh,
PA
gov,
slash
gec.
We
want
you
not
to
miss
out
on
any
information,
that's
available
so
reach
out
any
which
way
you
can
and
I.
A
Knew
if
I
could
cut
in
really
quickly,
yes,
yeah!
Thank
you
all,
for
you
know
contributing
to
the
important
conversations
so
far.
I
just
want
to
remind
everybody
that
we
are
taking
comments,
questions
on
the
Facebook
event,
as
well
as
the
zoom
video,
and
if
you
wanted
to
remain
anonymous,
we
did
set
up
a
texting
service
for
one
two,
one,
two,
three:
zero
six.
Three,
so
please
submit
comments
for
all
of
our
speakers.
We
are
here
to
serve
you
at
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
and
we
want
to
hear
from
you
as
well.
Thank.
B
You
very
much
and
I
don't
have
that
number
memorized,
so
I'm
very
grateful
that
you
shared
it
with
us.
I
will
ask
bola
and
Tara
if
they
want
to
follow
up
a
little
bit
and
say
in
answering
these
questions
and
they
will
move
to
our
statewide
leaders
discussion,
but
bulla
and
Cara
either
of
you
would
like
to
address.
What
do
you
think
the
best
support
the
best
policy
recommendation
you've
seen
right
now
that
you
think
would
be
a
positive
recommendation
to
make
to
municipalities
that
would
support
AAPI
communities
and
your
communities
is.
B
C
Shows
so
one
good
example,
I
can
just
mention
here
is
governor's
Commission
on
the
EPI
community.
That
is
I
think
that
is
a
great
initiative
where
I
have
met
personally
Mohan,
either
in
high
school
or
when
he
was
here
in
Pittsburgh
asking
about
community's
needs.
So
I
think
that
is
a
great
initiative
and
without
without
that
channel
I
think
many
of
the
communities,
epic
amenities
spread
across
a
state
would
remain
uninformed
so
for
now
I
think
I
can
just
mention
that
much
wonderful.
B
D
Anything
you
know
like
the
first
thing,
the
policy
the
community
stood
aware
of
is
like
the
first
of
all
is
like
understanding
by
people.
You
know,
like
our
community,
has
to
understand
what
our
rights
and
and
just
to
equate
those
rights
to
utilize
those
rights
come
forward
and
try
to
explore
your
options
and
be
together
and
just
move
forward.
I
just
like
to
say
only
this
much,
you
know
like
because
many
times
we
see
is
like
there
are
like
right
there
things,
but
people
are
not
coming
up
adjoining
themselves
to
achieve
them.
C
I,
don't
want
to
to
add
to
that
one
I
didn't
think
I
think
like
mentioning
about
the
many
predators,
welcome
welcoming
the
swag
initiative,
thinking
that
everyone
is
well
aware,
but
if
there
are
people
who
have
not
come
to
know
about
this,
that
is
a
very
great
initiative
from
the
part
of
Mayor
William
Peduto,
that
the
committee
is
working
very
well
with
all
the
communities,
all
the
immigrants
and
Refugee
communities.
So
that
is
worth
mentioning
here.
Thank.
B
You
and
I'm
gonna
switch
to
our
statewide
leaders,
but
I
want
to
thank
you
so
much
for
being
here
and,
and
the
four
was
welcoming
Pittsburgh,
that,
if
you
saw
this
event
on
Facebook,
welcoming
Pittsburgh
is
linked.
So
absolutely
follow
that
lead.
If
you're
someone,
if
you're
from
an
API
community
and
especially
for
recent
immigrant
communities,
there
are
lots
of
folks
who
want
to
connect
with.
You
can
feel
hard
if
you're
in
any
place
and
I'm,
not
an
expert
on
on
a
lot
of
things.
B
D
D
That
is
the
most
dangerous
in
violence
situations,
so
the
recommendation
would
be
what's
out
for
your
environment,
make
sure
you
are
safe,
that
nobody
is
gonna,
hurt
you
if
you
don't
feel
comfortable,
calling
our
hotline
or
like
calling
and
reaching
out
on
anything
the
best
option
would
be
the
one
that
I
recently
shared
text
inside
a
person.
That's
two
four:
zero,
two,
four,
nine,
seven,
eight,
six,
seven!
That's
our
new
tool!
D
We
develop
for
this
pandemic
situation,
so
please
utilize
that
one
and
just
reach
out
to
us,
if
you
don't
have
that
like,
if
don't
feel
your
environment
supports
even
texting
or
calling
or
anything
reach
out
to
your
closest
friend
him,
you
trust
and
make
a
second
drink
connection
to
our
hotline
or
anything.
But
you
were
safety
is
our
first
priority.
D
D
B
So,
which
is
so
asking
victims
to
reach
out
for
help
doesn't
mean
you
have
to
call
9-1-1.
It
doesn't
mean
we're
gonna
immediately,
employ
you
with
the
police.
What
what
bola
is
saying
you
can
reach
out
for
help,
which
means
I'm,
a
human
being
and
look
here's
a
human
being
who's.
Inviting
me
encouraging
me
to
reach
out.
You
can
just
say:
hey
I
want
to
talk
to
someone
and
that's.
D
B
D
I'll
answer:
I'm
gonna,
give
like
two
phone
number
leave
me:
a
cloud
alertly.
24/7
hotline
number.
Okay.
This
is
different
first,
thus,
for
one
two,
six,
eight
seven,
eight
zero,
zero.
Five
great
one
more
time.
Four,
one,
two,
six,
eight,
seven:
eight:
zero,
zero.
Five!
That's
our
hotline
number,
but
here
is
my
thing
many
times
everybody
do
not
feel
comfortable.
Calling
hotline
number
is
staying
at
only
staying
together
with
the
abuser
or
perpetrators,
so
just
to
protect
everybody
will
make
our
calling
or
chatting
line
accessible
right
now.
D
That's
called
tax
and
shut,
and
that
number
is
two
four
zero.
Two,
four
nine
seven,
eight
six
seven.
So
if
you
just
I'm
pushing
for
your
friends,
feel
free
to
tax
and
I,
say
our
friends
who
may
be
struggling
with
the
situation.
I
need
a
softball.
How
can
I
help
so
we
love
to
provide
that
support.
Thank.
B
You
so
much
I
appreciate
it
and
we
are
now
going
to
move
to
a
bit
of
a
look
at
the
statewide
level,
so
we've
heard
from
local
community
leaders
in
Pittsburgh,
but
we
also
have
a
chance
now
to
hear
from
Nancy,
Kim
and
Mohan
and
Mohan,
since
the
governor's
Commission
has
just
been
raised,
can
I
turn
it
over
to
you,
and
you
also
were
asked
the
question.
What
you
think
activism
looks
like
right
now
on
behalf
of
AAPI
communities
and
what
are
the
challenges
that
you
are
trying
to
address.
F
In
many
cases,
you're
not
going
to
be
through
no
fault
of
your
own
able
to
actually
serve
our
communities,
which
is
why
so
many
in
so
many
cases,
we've
seen
API
community
associations
and
service
organizations
having
to
step
up
and
do
twice
three
times
four
times
the
amount
of
work
they
should
be
having
to
do
to
do
the
job
of
other
organizations.
In
addition
to
the
rap
we've
seen
organizer
and
volunteer,
and
community
leader
after
community
leader,
take
on
translation
needs
and
messaging
needs
alone.
Far
beyond.
F
You
know
what
they're
called
to
do,
or
what
they're
being
paid
to
do
and
we're
deeply
thankful
for
all
their
effort
and
all
their
work.
But
we
also
know
that
this
these
are
services.
These
are
resources
that
should
have
existed
from
the
get-go
and
that
we're
committed
to
happening
in
the
future
in
terms
of
how,
like
our
work
on
the
elder
condition,
has
shifted
over
the
last
two
months
or
so
you
know
we
went
into
20
you,
especially
of
all
people.
F
You
know
we
had
plans
around
healthcare
around
curriculum
for
in
public
schools
and
I.
Think,
especially
in
the
first
month,
we
really
went
into
rapid
response
and
nothing
more
than
like
what
are
the
most
basic
needs.
Api's
have,
and
how
can
we
move
government
Chenier
to
make
them
happen?
So
we
did
things
like
make
sure
that
everything
that
the
government,
in
terms
of
Department
Health
and
unemployment,
compensation
and
labor
in
industry
were
putting
out
for
the
general
public.
We
could
get
that
translated
into
up
to
eight
different
API
languages.
F
We
build
rapid
response
networks
and
statewide
toolkits
for
our
communities
to
push
that
information
out
and
serve
as
a
resource
sharing
hub
statewide,
both
so
that
government
resources
could
be
moved
to
our
communities
most
efficiently
and
translated,
but
also
so
that
if
folks
in
Pittsburgh
were
doing
something
that
folks
in
Philly
could
know
about
that
resource
existed.
So
we're
really
proud
of
the
work
we
got
to
do.
F
B
Thank
you,
Mohan.
That
was
I'm,
surprising
and
there's
a
historical
challenge
here,
because
I
spoke
about
the
relative
invisibility
of
aap
eyes
and
some
of
the
American
narratives
that
we
we
often
get
overlooked
and
when
we
get
seen
it's
often
as
last
week's
discussion
clean
it
out
as
a
model
minority.
And
that
means
that
this
question
of
who
is
really
me,
some
stereotypes
that
suggests
that
a
guys
are
mostly.
E
B
Say
AP
I
like
fish
and
wildlife
and
which
is
very
important
to
me,
ecology
of
our
great
Commonwealth,
but
that
all
of
those
things
are
important.
So
we
need
to
keep
encouraging
people
to
see
the
complexity
of
AAPI
communities
like
the
languages
you
mentioned,
because
otherwise
they
will
the
government
resources
and
community
resources
that
are
supposed
to
be
for
all
of
us
and
and
I
would
say
in
many
cases
inadvertently
not
serving
our
communities.
So
thank
you
for
sharing
that
we
are
now
gonna
hear
from
Nancy,
Winn
I
believe
Nancy
song.
B
E
So
I
know
that
I've
been
first
of
all.
I
want
to
appreciate
folks
for
inviting
me
on
I've,
been
kind
of
slated
as
a
statewide
respond.
Somebody
who
can
respond,
statewide
and
actually
our
organization,
just
like
ba
o
P,
is
really
focused
in
Philadelphia
County,
so
I'm,
the
executive
director
of
Viet
lead
and
we
work
in
the
Vietnamese
and
Southeast
Asian
community
in
Philadelphia
County
and
actually
also
South
Jersey,
so
I
kind
of
want
to
talk
from
that
perspective.
E
What
Asian,
American
activism
looks
like
today,
I
think
you
know.
For
us,
it's
gonna
be
definitely
like.
Everyone
else
were
really
impacted
by
a
Kovach
19
response.
What
we've
been
doing
has
been
reaching
out,
like
basically
our
entire
organization.
We
do
use
organizing
work,
health
and
healing
work,
civic,
empowerment,
work.
We
do
community
defense
work
which
looks
at
how
to
support
folks
who
are
facing
ice
deportation
and
detention,
and
actually
an
urban
AG
reconnecting
with
our
cultural
roots.
But
all
five
of
those
areas
of
work
have
actually
just
been
moving
in
response
to
Kovan.
E
So
what
that
means
is
like
all
of
the
folks
that
we
usually
would
have,
under
our
civic
engagement
program,
right
calling
folks
to
help
them
register
to
vote,
calling
folks
to
help
them
understand
what
is
going
on
with
the
electoral
or
what
is
going
on
with
elections.
They
are
doing
that
and
also
doing
coordinating
check-ins
with
our
communities
very
similar
to
what
Mohan
said.
It's
it's
a
ton
of
stuff,
that's
happening,
there's
like
policies
that
are
happening.
E
Statewide,
citywide
tons
of
changes
I
mean,
for
example,
when
the
stay
at
home
order
happened
when
the
city
mayor
said
that
they
had
to
close
all
non-essential
businesses.
How
would
you
know
if
your
business
was
essential
or
non-essential
if
you're,
if
all
of
the
language
is
in
English
right?
If
everything
was
in
English?
And
so
you
know,
we
really
worked
with
the
governor's
Commission
to
try
as
quickly
as
possible
to
have
some
of
that
information.
E
For
instance,
as
light
it
in
multiple
languages
and
I
have
to
say
both
at
the
city
level
and
at
the
state
level,
I've
seen
so
much
more
response
to
materials
translated
into
languages
so
that
our
communities
are
equipped
with
the
right
information
and
I.
Think
that
goes
a
long
way
to
say
that
our
not
only
do
we
have
great
leadership
in
those
roles,
but
our
communities
have
matured
in
Pennsylvania
to
some
extent
that
they're
they're
being
recognized
to
some
extent
right.
E
I
also
want
to
touch
back
on
this
whole
idea
of
like
the
model
minority
and
how
we're
invisible
eyes.
I.
Think
that
what
we
found
in
our
Kovac
name,
teen
work,
has
also
been
that
a
lot
of
low
income,
Asian
American
folks
are
being
impacted,
are
getting
sick
from
kovin,
because
they're
essential
workers
right
so
we're
talking
about
factory
workers.
We're
talking
about
folks
who
are
still
working
in
food
distribution
and
I
feel,
like
that's
not
being
talked
about
nearly
enough
if
you
search
or
like
who's
getting
impacted
by
kovat
and
like
who's.
E
Actually,
getting
sick
I'm
worried
that
our
communities
are
being
overlooked
because
we
are
invisible
eyes
by
both
this
model
minority
myth
about
who
we
are
and
also
these
stories
of
these
factory
workers,
who
are
generally
limited,
English
Proficient.
They
do
not
have
like
protections,
they
may
be
mixed
status
folks
they
are
Asian
American,
they
are
part
of
our
communities,
but
they
are
being
invisible.
E
I'm,
invisible
eyes
and
I
think
that
a
lot
of
the
work
in
for
our
organizations
is
a
connecting
with
those
folks
be
trying
to
work
to
support
them
in
feeling
like
they
can
feeling
empowered
to
speak
on,
what's
going
on
feeling
empowered
to
demand
their
rights,
which,
also
by
the
way,
is
changing
under
code
19.
Like
does
anybody
here
know
what
sick
pay
looks
like
now?
What
what
size
is
your
company
today?
E
There's
all
of
this
stuff
I
think
that
is
both
like
a
challenge
for
our
community,
but
also
presents
opportunities
for
activism
and
organizing
in
different
ways
and
organizing
not
only
as
Asian
American
folks
but
Asian
American
factory
workers,
in
solidarity
with
other
workers
who
are
on
the
same
line
and
who
are
also
getting
sick
right
and
so
I
think
that
the
opportunity
for
multiracial
organizing
in
this
time
because
of
the
crisis,
is
also
presenting
itself
in
different
ways.
I
guess
the
last
thing,
the
very
last
thing
that
I'll
plug
and
I'm
sure
it
like
folks.
E
You
know
you've
heard
it
across
the
spectrum
is
like
you
know,
elections
is
so
important
and
making
sure
that
our
folks
know
a-all
of
the
changes
to
the
landscape.
Right.
You
know.
Primary
is
now
in
a
different,
a
different
time
on
June,
2nd,
also
vote-by-mail,
how
to
make
sure
that
our
folks
are
going
to
actually
fill
out
that
application,
which
right
now
is
only
in
English
and
then
actually
fill
out.
B
Thank
you
so
much
once
again,
that
was
a
wealth
of
information
and
I'll
just
highlight
two
things
before
Kim
speaks,
which
is
vote
if
you
are
able
to,
and
once
again
this
group
of
people,
this
Facebook
page
wherever
you're
watching
this
on
the
typing.
A
comment
and
someone
will
try
to
reach
out
to
you.
If
you
want
to
know
how
to
get
help
with
this
idea
of
voting.
B
Where
can
I
get
information
about
candidates
and
then
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
the
opportunities
for
potentially
multi
racial
activism,
and
that
has
been
a
real
challenge
as
well
for
our
communities
that
anti
black
racism
is
so
strong
and
pervasive
throughout
the
US,
and
many
immigrants
actually
arrive
in
the
United
States
through
Hollywood,
through
popular
culture,
with
a
lot
of
stereotypes
of
other
American
fishing
groups.
And
so
we
also
need
to
work
within
our
communities
to
say
that
it's
in
our
best
interest
to
work
in
solidarity.
B
That
white
supremacy
affects
everyone
in
the
United
States
negatively,
and
that's
something
that
we
can
work
with
allies
from
all
sorts
of
backgrounds
to
challenge
and
dismantle,
even
at
the
same
time
that
we're
looking
within
our
communities
and
noticing
gender-based
patterns
and
problems.
They
are
universal.
It
doesn't
matter
what
race,
age,
income,
education,
domestic
violence,
an
intimate
partner,
violence
are
in
every
community,
including
API
communities,
and
we
need
to
deny
that
these
things
happen.
But,
as
Lola
was
saying,
we
need
to
reach
out.
B
We
need
to
say
we're
here
when
we
can
be
to
people
in
our
communities,
especially
if
they're
isolated,
for
whatever
reason
after
highlighting
those
two
things
I'd
like
to
turn
over
to
Kim.
We
started
a
few
minutes
late,
but
we
will
I
promise
get
to
some
questions
and
answers
as
well,
but
Kim.
Please
take
it
away.
Yeah.
G
Hi
everyone,
my
name,
is
Kim
I
am
a
staff
person
at
the
Pennsylvania
integration
and
citizenship
coalition,
we're
a
statewide
organization
about
16
member
organizations
all
across
the
state.
We
lead
and
be
capped
or
two
of
them.
They
do
awesome
work
not
working
with
them.
So
so
we
mean
to
work
mostly
on
the
advocacy
level
right
so
for
us
I
feel
like
we
always
deal
with
crises
in
our
work
right,
but
for
us
right
now.
G
It
feels
like
seeing
the
intersections
of
these
different
systems
that
aren't
working
being
amplified
in
this
condemning
so
things
with
immigration,
housing,
health
care
of
gdtq
issues,
I,
think
all
those
things
are
just
being
amplified
so
we're
rapidly
responding
to
things
coming
up
like
lots
of
housing,
lots
of
jobs
in
our
communities,
but
also
kind
of
like
thinking
about
how
we're
using
that
and
pivoting
into
how
to
use
it.
How
to
use
this
moment
to
draw
attention
to
how
the
system
isn't
working
and
has
never
worked
for
vulnerable
communities.
G
You
know
like
I'm
gonna,
you
know
a
lot
of
the
things
that
I'm
gonna
say
are
gonna
echo
at
Nancy
said.
But
before
this
moment
some
of
the
big
ideas
seemed
really
impossible
right,
like
things
like
Universal
income
and
things
like
health
care
for
all,
they
seemed
really
impossible.
But
this
moment
is
showing
this
us
that
big
ideas
are
possible
and
that
we
should
be
using
this
moment
to
have
a
big
vision
have
baked
and
ends,
because
that's
the
only
way
that
we're
going
to
do
forward
and
if
anything
is
going
to
change
and
I.
G
B
B
What
are
I
heard,
what
the
challenges
were
and
I
think
I
was
hearing
a
repetition
I
mean,
of
course,
the
first
biggest
challenges
resource
and
what
Kim
just
said
is:
resources
have
never
been
equitably
distributed
in
our
society
and
undoing,
share
of
our
resources
of
gone
to
certain
demographic
groups.
That's
how
the
country
was
filled
so
we're
already,
starting
with
those
inequities
built
into
our
society,
so
certainly
getting
resources
to
people
basic
needs
so
that
they
can
serve.
B
I'm
gender-based
other
kinds
of
violence
that
people
are
experiencing
and
then
wanting
to
be
civically,
engaged
all
the
barriers
that
are
in
place.
So
if
one
can
meet
ones,
basic
needs
but
wants
to
vote,
and
yet
the
applications
are
not
translated.
This
denial
of
the
actuality
of
the
United
States
as
a
country
in
which
people
come
to
be
in
many
different
languages
and
that
I,
it's
good
to
know
some
of
the
positive
things
that
are
happening.
I
mean
please
do
be
sharing
it's
there's
still
time.
If
you
have
a
question
that
you
want.
B
B
B
B
G
B
E
No
no
problem
and
I
think
Cara
was
saying
it
before
too
so.
I
have
two
kids
I've
barreled
in
one
year
old
and
I.
Think
in
terms
of
personal
toll,
you
know
I
think
like
I
I
feel
generally
lucky
because
I
am
you
know,
I
did
not
lose
my
job.
My
partner
did
not
lose
their
job
and
I
have
the
privilege
of,
like
you
know,
working
from
home,
I
have
access
to
the
computer,
Internet
and
I
have
like
I
have
access
to
those
things
at
the.
E
On
the
other
hand,
I
do
feel
like
all
of
this.
All
of
these
articles
now
unsorted,
like
you,
know
how
much
unpaid
labor
did
we
do
before
this.
Now.
How
much
unpaid
labor
is
is
is:
are
we
doing
now
there's
like
a
new
calculator
of
like
unpaid
labor
in
terms
of
all
of
us
working
from
home
with
kids
school
home
schooling
them
I'm?
E
Not,
but
a
lot
of
my
friends
are
and
I
I
am
wondering
about
like
what
type
what
what
new
place
are
we
going
to
get
to
in
terms
of
what
is
understood
as
a
as
productivity?
What
work
looks
like
what
work
has
to
look
like
in
this
next
year,
because
we
can't
go
as
on
as
we
have
like
I
have
put
in
seventy
hour
or
weeks.
E
I
feel
like
every
week
since
the
Cova
19
things
started,
I
speak,
be
it,
and
so
you
know
at
the
same
time
as
laying
doing
the
work
being
an
interpreters
for
people
connecting
folks
to
people
because
we're
like
the
only
Vietnamese
organization,
for
instance
in
South
Jersey.
We
get
this
I
keep
this
outsized
impression
in
my
head
that
like,
if
we
don't
get
this
information
out
in
Vietnamese,
no
one
else
will
and
like
what
would
that
impact
be
that
is
so
unhealthy.
E
It's
unhealthy,
but
it's
like
you
know.
You
can
see
the
precarity
of
the
situation
and
why
you
know
an
organization
will
put
themselves
in
that
place
because
it's
like
well,
if
it's
not
gonna
be
done
by
us,
then
who
and
so
I
really
I
I.
You
know
when
we
say,
like
the
system
was
not
made
for
us
right.
It's
like
so
true
in
terms
of
like
the
language
needs
in
terms
of
like
all
of
the
various
ways.
When
when
people
say
you
know,
if
you
get
sick,
you
should
lock
yourself
in
a
room.
E
Well,
how
many
bathrooms
does
your
house
have?
How
many
rooms
do
you
have
to?
Let
you
know
like
what,
if,
like
you
know
what,
if
you
don't
so
I
just
feel
like
you
know,
I?
For
me,
most
of
this
has
been
just
like
severe
overwork
I.
Don't
have
family
members
yet
who
are
sick,
but
I
have
a
lot
of
friends
who
especially
black
and
brown
friends,
who
not
only
have
friends
who
are
sick
but
who
have
family
members
were
passing
away.
E
I
think
we're
going
through
a
national,
traumatic
national
like
long-term
traumatic
experience,
and
so
the
mental
health
impacts
of
this
I
don't
even
know
how
to
talk
about
yet
so
there's
a
lot
to
unpack,
but
I
appreciate
opportunities
like
this
to
share
and
then
to
just
hear
from
other
folks
around
the
state,
because
I
feel
like
sometimes
Philadelphia
in
and
of
itself
as
a
bubble.
Thank
you.
C
Let
me
jump
in
on
plumber
to
let
you
know.
Wolle
has
left
so
part
of
that
question.
I
think
will
be
left
unanswered,
but
I
would
like
to
just
mention
here
about
the
personal
toll
so
as
the
pen
pandemic
hit,
and
then
we
got
into
the
lockdown
to
to
assist
our
families.
We
have
a
robocall
system
to
keep
them
informed
what
is
happening
and
then
we
have
to
to
date,
I
think
we
have
around
100
1000
plus
phone
lines
on
our
system.
C
So
what
we
did
was
we
sent
a
message
to
call
our
office
if
they
have
if
they
had
any
problem,
so
we
had
just
started
with
the
census
work
on
the
census
application.
So
there
were
floods
of
phone
calls
on
how
to
complete
the
census
and
then
came
the
unemployment
compensation.
So
many
community
members
needed
assistance
to
help
to
get
help
with
the
unemployment
compensation,
and
then
we
started
on
the
emergency
relief
supplies.
So
what
happened
personally
was
I
started
getting
phone
calls,
irrespective
of
what
time
it
was.
C
Of
course,
I
took
phone
calls
until
9:00
p.m.
and
then
style,
but
then
to
get
back
to
add
to
the
personal
level
doing
so
in
in
order
to
help
the
company
members
I
was
not
completely
doing
my
family
job
I
left
my
daughter's
education
part
to
my
wife,
so
she
is
also
working
a
full
time
from
home,
she's
working
upstairs
and
I'm
working
from
the
the
best
basement.
But
then
I
have
left
my
responsibility
of
the
family
to
my
wife
alone,
so
that
I'm
able
to
take
phone
calls
from
the
committee
members.
B
Thank
you
for
sharing
and
everyone
who
is
on
this
call
it
many
many
people
are
doing
work
within
their
communities
and
so
I
think
it's
also
helping
people
who
are
most
vulnerable
and
then
helping
the
helpers
and
so
Ethan,
I
and
Ernest.
Who
is
helping
in
the
background
in
collecting
questions
which
I've
been
feeding
to
her
to
our
panelists
I,
want
to
just
say,
thank
you
to
all
of
you
activists,
all
of
you
who
your
job
is
taking
care
of.
Other
people
and
and
I
can
imagine
the
burnout
in
the
tool
Mohan
Kim.
G
Something
yeah
yeah,
I'm
gonna,
go
off
of
what
currants
and
also
so
I.
Think
a
personal
toll
write
is
well
I
mean
I.
I
still
have
my
current
job,
which
is
great,
but
about
two
years
ago
that
wouldn't
have
been
the
case
because
I
was
working
at
a
restaurant
I
would
have
been
losing
my
job.
My
family,
you
know
my
family
now
is
is
losing
their
jobs,
but
they
are
able
to
to
to
like
get
a
get
bussiness
check,
they're
able
to
apply
for
an
employment
to
three
years
ago.
G
G
So
one
of
the
things
that
you
you
could
you
know
like
the
public
could
do
to
help.
If
you
have
the
money,
if
you
have
the
cash,
is
to
donate
to
the
Pennsylvania
immigrant
relief
fund,
which
is
they
stayed
by
fund
that
we
had
picked
with
so
many
of
our
partners
across
the
state
have
been
working
to
do
to
build
very
quickly,
I
might
say
in
the
past
few
weeks,
so.
G
We
had
a
foundation
in
Philadelphia
donated
$500,000
to
it,
which
sounds
like
a
lot
of
money
right,
but
if
we
give
like
800
dollars
to
each
family,
that's
a
very
small
amount
of
money
to
each
family.
That
would
only
serve
600,
ish
families
and
again
we
have
thousands
and
thousands
of
families
just
waiting
for
some
kind
of
cash
assistance
than
anything
else.
Really.
So,
if
it's
okay
I
can
share
with
you
kind
of
the
link
to
donate,
and
it
would
be
really
helpful.
Julie
I.
B
Think
that
yeah
get
that
over
to
us
in
the
chat
and
I'm
gonna
toss
that
on
to
artists
and
ethos
to
do
list.
If
that's
okay,
I
think
we
make
I
think
we
were
scheduled
six
to
seven
and
we
started
a
few
minutes
late.
So
I
will
only
take
30
seconds
at
the
end
and
maybe
comment
but
Mullen.
It's
your
time.
I.
F
Mean
I
think
like
just
to
echo
everything
the
other
side,
despite
like
there
being
no
travel
and
being
locked
at
home,
the
hours
are
just
constant.
The
calls
are
just
constant
I.
Think
the
the
shock
of
the
first
two
weeks
alone
turned
a
bunch
of
my
hair,
gray
and
I
was
not
expecting
that
to
pull
off
that
look
for
like
another
10
years,
but
I
would
say
that
I
mean
something
that
we
talked
a
lot
about
the
Commission
beforehand
and
is
now
going
to
be.
The
key
is
just
mental
health
access
for
API
communities.
F
It's
not
great
right
now.
We
all
know
it.
We
know
that
there's
work
need
to
be.
That
needs
to
be
done.
It
was
a
priority
for
the
Commission
for
2020
already,
but
between
just
what
everyone
is
dealing
with
and
the
added
stress
of
having
folks
across
the
country
at
the
national
and
international
level,
call
this
a
Chinese
virus
and
Asian
virus,
a
Khan
flu.
F
B
You
so
much
and
I
will
mention
that
we
are
going
to
keep
putting
the
contact
information
that
we're
getting
from
our
speakers,
we'll
put
them
on
the
Facebook
page.
Maybe
if
I
can
created
a
document-
and
someone
shows
me
how
to
do
that,
who
will
pin
it
we'll
just
make
sure
that
we
share
out
these
resources
I
think
what
I
want
to
highlight
is
that
our
speakers
are
working
on
overlapping
and
intersecting
areas,
but
they're
also
helping
different
communities
and
specific
ways.
B
They're,
wonderful
and
amazing
and
I
think
that
I'm
feeling
very
glad
to
have
to
have
this
moment
to
connect
with
all
of
the
speakers
and
so
I
think
I'm
gonna
say
something
incredibly
cheesy
which
is
reach
out.
It
is
actually
true
that
those
of
us
who
are
doing
this
called
ether
or
ethical
or
nostalgic
homes,
myself
and
every
one
of
the
speakers.
We
are
people
who
are
trying
to
say
we're
here.
We
don't
have
all
the
answers.
We
may
not
always
have
the
resources,
but
you
can
certainly
make
contact
with
us.
B
Api
communities
are
suffering,
we
heard
words
like
me.
Suffering
people
are
losing
things
there's
a
lot
of
breathing
I
would
like
to
echo
something
that
Nancy
said.
Anyone
who
doesn't
acknowledge
that
we're
in
a
period
of
global
trauma
is
really
not
paying
attention
to
something,
and
it's
important
that
we
all
say
we
are
in
this
together,
because
even
if
we're
all
sharing
the
trauma,
that's
the
only
way
to
lighten
up
burden
is
to
share
with
each
other.
B
B
A
You
I
know,
and
thank
you
all
for
such
an
an
important
conversation.
The
second
of
four,
our
next
one
will
be
addressing
small
business
resources
next
week,
yeah
again
I'm
just
gonna
echo
what
Anu
said
you
know
Anu
earnest
myself
as
well
as
all
of
our
speakers.
We
aren't
here
for
you,
the
city
of
Pittsburgh,
is
here
to
support
me
during
this
difficult
time.
So
please
do
reach
out
and
thank
you
all
for
attending,
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
advocate
for
the
AAPI
community
and
show
that
Pittsburgh
is
truly
a
community
for
all.
