Last Call for Gaysian Survey Participants

The University of Maryland’s survey on LGBT Asians is closing in a month, and they need 100 more participants to complete their study! Data on LGBTQ Asians is scarce, given our numbers as a double-minority, so props to UMD for this undertaking.

Every 5th completion will get a $20 Amazon gift card, and more importantly, the responses will contribute to this little-studied area of research, and help with community organizing efforts. The survey only takes about 20 minutes. http://ter.ps/LGBTQAAPI

Gaysian Study - Make Your Voice Heard!

Data on LGBTQ Asians is scarce, given our numbers as a double-minority. Props to the University of Maryland for conducting a study on the Gaysian experience!

Currently, they still need 200 participants - every 5th completion will get a $20 Amazon gift card, and more importantly, the responses will contribute to this little-studied area of research, and help with community organizing efforts.

The survey only takes about 20 minutes - make your voice heard at http://ter.ps/LGBTQAAPI

The Dragon Fruit Project is an intergenerational oral history project that explores queer Asian and Pacific Islanders and their experiences with love and activism in the 1960s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.

As a follow-up to yesterday’s post, I wanted to highlight this incredible project by API-Equality Northern California to document queer API leaders and their heroism in the queer liberation movement. Much like in Hamilton the musical, “who tells your story” becomes our responsibility because if we don’t, no one else will and our community’s contributions will be forgotten and unacknowledged. Thankfully, the Dragon Fruit Project will ensure that our stories will be remembered and that their lives will be touchstones to inspire future generations.
