Without a Wikipedia page, our community's history exists in AI without the full story of what we did or why it mattered.

We're launching the C100 Wikipedian Fellowship, a free training program to learn to write & edit Wikipedia entries.

Two stories broke this month that affect the Chinese American community directly--conflating the two does not make Americans safer. It makes the work of identifying genuine threats harder.

The stereotype that Asian Americans are skilled, intelligent, & reserved may seem 'positive,' but our new research w/ @NORCNews shows otherwise. It has real mental health consequences & can minimize discrimination.

Asian Americans often encounter the perception that they are smart, skilled, & reserved: the model minority stereotype. This is sometimes dismissed as a compliment, but our new survey with @NORCNews reveals the true psychological toll.

We are glad to still be learning what full participation looks like.

Laufey’s “Madwoman” music video brings together an all-Asian and Asian American cast across music, film, and sport. Seeing that level of representation in one place still isn’t the norm—and that’s exactly why it matters.

Our founders I.M. Pei and Yo-Yo Ma made the case for Chinese American belonging not through words but through undeniable cultural excellence. Laufey, Alysa Liu, Warren Fu, and this entire cast are doing the same thing.

For over half of U.S.-born #AsianAmericans, it's normal for others to assume they are foreign, and they're 3x as likely to feel they don't belong here -- our research shows this is associated with severe psychological distress. 😧

U.S.-born #AsianAmericans who are regularly assumed to be foreign -- facing questions like "Where are you REALLY from?" -- are 3x more likely to feel that they don't fully belong in this country. 😔
