☀️ Join us on June 24th and June 25th from 5PM - 6:30 PM PST / 8PM - 9:30PM EST for a newly revamped version of AAJIL&rsquo;s Fundamentals, the first leg of our Core Community Racial Justice Trainings, facilitated by AAJIL Core Team member; Angela Kim! ☀️ 🌱 These sessions are completely virtual and will revolve around the questions &ldquo;What are the personal, ancestral, and systemic stories that form our Asian American identities? How can we move from identity towards the work of collective liberation?&rdquo; 🌱 ✨SESSION 1 - THE STORIES THAT SHAPE US✨ Participants will be invited to connect their own personal and family stories of immigration to larger systemic and national movements that form the Asian American identity. ✨SESSION 2 - FROM IDENTITY TO COLLECTIVE LIBERATION✨ Participants will be invited to explore the gifts and limitations of the Asian American identity as a label and to explore how we might move towards collective liberation across race, class, nationality, gender, etc.&nbsp;These 2 online sessions comprise the Fundamentals level of AAJIL&#39;s Core Community Racial Justice Trainings.&nbsp; The next level are the 3 Foundations trainings that will be offered in late July. The third level, Formations, is AAJIL&#39;s 8-month community leadership development program dedicated to developing justice-minded leaders who center community, decolonial values, and emergent strategy. Participants must attend all 3 Foundations sessions to be eligible.&nbsp; The program:- is built upon emergent strategy, decolonial values, and an ethics of solidarity- focuses on supporting a small cohort of community lab organizers- is free + leads to a certificate upon completion- meets online from ~Sep 2026 to ~May 2027 These sessions are being offered on a pay-what-you-can basis. We are asking for donations starting at $1 to register. Please contact us at aajiladmin@aajil.org for financial assistance, if needed. AAJIL is run by a team of volunteer co-directors with a commitment to grassroots organizing. Offering free community consciousness classes and an incubator program for Asian American facilitators year-round is our form of mutual aid. Our operating costs come out to about $200 a month that goes towards hosting platforms and security measures to protect our community. Donations from our Annual Core Community Trainings go directly into these costs and allow AAJIL to continue its journey. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1781061032/wysiwyg/tj2o11etdj1jpa08bfpq.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1781061041/wysiwyg/tnsm5my9si0k4vbsrtky.png" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1781061058/wysiwyg/v0fqazo191ovkv4oyjsb.png" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">
