Diversity initiatives require going beyond just representation but deeper curricular inclusion of all people groups in American society. In this session, the presenter discusses how the histories of minoritized groups deepen our knowledge and our sense of self -- no matter if you are a minoritized person or not. Kang uses the history of excluding Asian American and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) students as a case that illustrates this. This session will help participants think about how what is missing in the curriculum can reinforce racial biases or racist attitudes that we might otherwise not be aware of. Short presentation and discussion.
