The Heritage Panel Series was started by Christopher Won (he/them), in the hopes of facilitating a narrative-driven platform that celebrates and centers the authentic voices of individuals who have been politicized and/or racialized into the categories of–Asian Pacific Islander, Black, Latinx, and/or Indigenous identities. The themes for cycles 2020 and 2021 were Belonging, History, and Activism.- Programming – Christopher Won
