“Crushing the Myth 04 (LA)” will be presented on Saturday, June 22, from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Japanese American National Museum, 100 N. Central Ave. in Little Tokyo.
“Crushing the Myth,” a nationwide speaker series that features Asian Americans and allies, aims to share Asian American stories and perspectives with a global audience while building a strong community of leaders, thinkers, and influencers.
“Asian America today is more than just the ‘Model Minority’ label,” organizers said. “Let’s stop thinking Asian Americans are one big, stale monolith and start telling Asian American stories that make people listen, learn and inspire.”
