A/P/A Voices: A COVID-19 Public Memory Project

Recognizing the critical need for documenting the COVID-19 pandemic and the myriad of ways it has and will impact Asian/Pacific American communities in New York City and nationally, the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at New York University, in collaboration with Tomie Arai, Lena Sze, Vivian Truong, and Diane Wong, launched the A/P/A Voices: A COVID-19 Public Memory Project in Spring 2020. The project conducts recorded virtual interviews, and collects digital artifacts documenting the experiences of A/P/A individuals and communities during the pandemic.
