Soh Daiko is thrilled to be going back to Rutgers University to perform today at the East Coast Asian American Student Union, whose mission is to inspire, educate, and empower those interested in Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) issues. Run solely by volunteers, the organization’s membership is primary composed of universities from the eastern United States, and its annual conferences draw students and activists from across the country. The nonprofit organization continues its advocacy work today through year-round programming, including Campus Tours, Youth Summit with WHIAAPI, the ECAASU Conference, and more.
This year’s theme is “Beyond our Boundaries”, which is meant to emphasize the history of the AAPI movement by using the lessons from those who empowered others to inspire today’s students to go beyond the boundaries set upon us and become leaders, both in our communities and in our own lives.
