"To be an Asian-American Athlete…"

11/12/13

Contributed by Evelio Perez

 - Have you ever felt that you were judged in sports based on your skin color?
- Is there a reason why you were never picked first in gym class?
- Where you the "token" player of the team?
- What does it mean to be an Asian American Athlete?

Well, in this week's meeting, Asian American Alliance is going to discuss on how Asian Americans are portrayed in sports. From stereotypes to masculinity, there is actually a deep issue that many people of color faces when it comes to sports. 

So come this Thursday at 7pm in Williams 313 to help shed light to this issue.
