Confronting Xenophobia and Supporting Asian and Asian/Pacific American Communities during COVID-19

In light of the outbreak of COVID-19, cases of racism and xenophobia against Asians and Asian/Pacific Americans have surged across the world. In the United States, there has always been a deep history of xenophobia towards Asians. This webinar will feature two experts to discuss the issue of Anti-Asian sentiment, and will also focus on teaching resources in countering xenophobia. This is a free webinar co-sponsored by the Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA) and the American Library Association’s (ALA) Office for Diversity, Literacy and Outreach Services (ODLOS).
