We’re excited to announce the Pre-Summit event for the Global Respectful Disruption Mini Summit! This year’s discussion lab, themed Rest as Resistance, dives into the concepts explored in Tricia Hersey's book Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto. This FREE event is open to everyone, and no prior reading is required, though we recommend familiarizing yourself with the book’s themes, such as through this 8-minute NPR interview.

What to Expect:

• Participation: Engage in discussions or simply listen—whatever feels most comfortable.

• Reflection: We will also take time for a post-election reflection on the state of global education and its impact on our conversations.

CJ Tremblay will be the Lead Moderator, with chat support from Kory Saunders and Chris Thompson. We look forward to a meaningful and restorative session with you all to discuss the summit theme and the post election results!

Attendees participated in interactive educational presentation and panel discussions highlighting how our community can feel more equipped to have conversations about race. This panel was designed to create a space where professionals from the AAPI community working in global higher education can come together to share their individual experiences and work together to synthesize a tool kit to better support AAPI and BIPOC professionals in the higher ed system who have been historically underrepresented. It will explore themes of identity (both self-imposed and one imposed by others) within the Asian community, and collective action as we equip ourselves to boldly speak up and out in a system, not designed for us.
