NAPAWF*NYC | Multilingual BLM Materials

As a pan-Asian organization, NAPAWF*NYC understands the complications in communicating with our family and friends who have different language abilities, represent different generational identities, and have varying understandings of racial analysis. 

This is a crowdsourced repository of materials in Asian & Pacific Islander diasporic languages we can all use to navigate difficult discussions about Black Lives Matter, anti-blackness, American history, and police/state-sanctioned violence with our families and communities.
