October is Filipino American History Month!

Celebrate by joining the Asian Pacific Islander Staff Association (APISA) for two fun community events on Tuesday, October 11.

Lumpia Break in Oakland

From 2 – 3 p.m. (PT), come to the 5th Floor Patio between the Broadway and Franklin Buildings in Oakland to taste some delicious lumpia — Filipino fried spring rolls! If you’re joining us, please fill out this quick form so we can make sure we’ll have enough lumpia for everyone.

Tsai & Yang at the Movies: “Being Asian in America”

From 3 – 4 p.m., tune in on Zoom for another installation of Tsai & Yang at the Movies. We will be showing the Pew Research Center documentary “Being Asian in America.” In this 30-minute film, Asian American participants describe navigating their identities in a nation where the label “Asian” brings expectations about origins, behavior and physical self.

Join us in person at the Oakland Broadway building, room 5001 or via Zoom at: https://UCOP.zoom.us/j/97249850270
