SUMMARY:Blessings and Curses of Assimilation
DESCRIPTION:A conversation with Dr. Franklin S. Odo\, Dr. Gary P. Zola\, Dr. Riv-Ellen Prell\, & Ting-Yi Oei\, moderated by Ted Gong. \nIn America\, the assimilation process is a double-edged sword. On the one hand\, most members of an American minority group aspire to find full acceptance within American society. On the other hand\, many resist total assimilation by negotiating their own distinctive identity that is shaped by a minority culture. Or as one scholar recently observed\, “Jewish [and Chinese] Americans struggle to determine which side of the hyphen they should embrace.” \nTo commemorate May as both Jewish American Heritage Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month\, the American Jewish Archives and the 1882 Foundation are joining forces to sponsor a unique webinar conversation to explore the yin yang nature of assimilation in America. \nThe Blessings and Curses of Assimilation May 31_5pm Letter Size 2pg
