Bridging the Gap: What is Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion?

Hosted by the Council of Korean Americans (CKA) and Korean American Coalition – Los Angeles (KAC), this two-hour summit is intended to engage Korean American college students, recent graduates, and young professionals with a discussion on DEI and its relevance to the national discourse on race relations and anti-Asian sentiment. Some of the topics we are planning to cover include inward-facing issues such as intergenerational dynamics and intercultural conflicts within the Korean American community and outward-facing topics such as the Atlanta spa shooting, discrimination against Asians with regards to the Covid-19 pandemic, and anti-Asian sentiment in general.
