May marks the celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month. AAPI Heritage Month provides the continued opportunity to recognize and honor the depth and richness of that which makes MoFo truly unique: our people. Throughout the month, we will highlight the instrumental role of, and significant contributions made by, our AAPI community at MoFo on our MoFo+ blog and in our social media posts.
In addition, we are hosting a conversation with MoFo Partner Nick Fung and author and journalist Jeff Yang as they discuss Jeff’s New York Times bestselling book, RISE: A Pop History of Asian America from the Nineties to Now. RISE is a love letter to and for Asian Americans—a vivid scrapbook of voices, emotions, and memories from an era when AAPI culture was forged and transformed, and a way to preserve both the headlines and the intimate conversations that have shaped the community into what it is today. You may sign up for MoFo News, Events, & Publications.
In honor of AAPI Heritage Month, the Morrison & Foerster Foundation is donating $20,000 across several nonprofit organizations serving the AAPI community. Please visit our MoFo+ blog to learn about these organizations.
