It took several months, a ton of heated debates and (the highlight) a two-day photoshoot at the POLITICO headquarters.

Here’s why and how we did it 🧵

[POLITICO @politico]

Diana Hwang, founder of @AAWPI, launched a program that invested in civic impact projects by AAPI women. She also launched the first PAC dedicated to electing progressive AAPI women.

It’s here: Our annual Recast Power List of 40 people who shaped identity, culture and politics in 2022 is out.

Love them or hate them, their scope and reach on American politics can’t be denied.

A quick thread highlighting a couple names on the list 🧵

“Any project to increase the political power of women of color must do so in an aligned way from the start, building power at all levels.” 👏🏾👏🏼👏🏿 @DianaHwang @aawpi https://t.co/a873VqDo45

[Mandy Van Deven @mandyvandeven]

"Foundations that seemed aligned would turn us down. I'd talk about the need in Asian American communities, the invisibility of AAPI women, and was met with skepticism and apathy. What our community was facing was reflected back at us: we were invisible and unworthy." @DianaHwang

[IreneHLin @IreneHLin]

I’ve got lots of sheroes but none more so than ⁦@DianaHwang⁩ and thrilled to see her work on behalf of AAPI women highlighted!!! https://t.co/yMHZXgnTWi

[Fontane Lo @fontane_lo]

"For 10 years, we struggled even to be seen as legitimate... that [1] Asian Americans aren’t all doctors, lawyers, and engineers...[2] that Asian American women are a priority...[3] that civic engagement and building political power among Asian American women is the strategy."

An initiative to build progressive #politicalpower among Asian American and Pacific Islander women finds its footing: https://t.co/7W4SeqejDd @DianaHwang @AAWPI #AAPI
