Jennifer Ching (’00), Executive Director of North Star Fund, coauthored an article for Medium outlining three ways that Asian American leaders can practice the principle of freedom as a collective struggle, including: leading for collective liberation, prioritizing need over affinity, and leveraging proximity to power (“Freedom is a Collective Struggle,” May 22). “As two Asian American leaders who have publicly voiced support for Palestine’s freedom from genocide and occupation — while recommitting our fervent opposition to antisemitism, Islamophobia and anti-Blackness — we are deeply troubled by the silence and/or complicity of Asian American leaders in this moment. . . . Solidarity is never perfect, but as Asian Americans we have an obligation to lead knowing our history, and with a clear eye for our shared futures. . . . Like other periods in our country’s history, this is a time for dialogue and action.”
