A bit of a short notice I know, but I wanted to let the bay peeps know that Mr. Hyphen 2006, Robin Sukhadia, is coming to a location near you! Ok, I know that he lives in the bay area, but you know, just trying to hype up his appearance. You can't blame me. It's Mr. Hyphen!
Robin will be speaking on a panel at the 2008 Annual Membership Meeting for an organization called Chinese for Affirmative Actions. Along with him, there will be Asian American activists from API Equality, Helen Zia Fellowship for Social Change, Friends of Educational Opportunities in Chinatown, Asian Americans for Civil Rights and Equality, and other organizations.
DATE: Thursday, January 31, 2008
TIME: 6 pm - 8 pm
LOCATION: CAA Community Room, 17 Walter U. Lum Place, San Francisco.
COST: FREE!
CAA is co-sponsoring our release party this Friday at 111 Minna Gallery, so if you appreciate them as much as we do, head over to their meeting and learn what's ahead for 2008 for CAA! Our awesome tabling crew will also be there, so don't forget to stop by and say what's up. If you haven't picked up your latest issue of Hyphen, don't worry. We'll have plenty there for you to choose from.
For more information or to RSVP, please contact lma@caasf.org.
