Join us for a virtual event where we will be chatting Dr. Bianca Mabute-Louie about her book Unassimilable: An Asian Diasporic Manifesto For The 21st Century. Dr. Mabute-Louie is a sociologist and activist whose research focuses on the intersection of race, religion, and politics. In her book, she provides insight into the history of Asian Americans' sense of belonging and ongoing pressures to assimilate. Unassimilable invites you to examine societal structures, and how they impact the way we parent, build community, and define ourselves. If you are someone who is curious about your role in solidarity and social change, come join our chat with Dr. Mabute-Louie!

The event will take place on Thursday July 16 2026 at 5pm PST. Don't miss out on this opportunity to hear from our author!
