DESCRIPTION:On the last day of the Asian Pacific Islanders Issues Series (APIISERIES) 
 2016 Conference, Author Karen L. Ishizuka will give a keynote presentation 
 on her newly released book: "Serve the People: Making Asian America in the 
 Long Sixties." \n\nThere will be a panel discussion following including 
 booksales and signing.\n\nThis event is free and open to the 
 public.\n\nUntil the political ferment of the Long Sixties, there were no 
 Asian Americans. There were only isolated communities of mostly 
 Chinese,Japanese, and Filipinos lumped together as Orientals.\n\nServe the 
 People tells the story of the social and cultural movement that knit these 
 disparate communities into a political identity, the history of how and why 
 the double consciousness of Asian America came to be.\n\nKaren Ishizuka's 
 vivid narrative reveals the personal epiphanies and intimate stories of 
 insurgent movers and shakers and ground-level activists alike."\n\nKaren 
 Ishizuka is the author of the books: Lost and Found: Reclaiming the 
 Japanese American Incarceration and Mining the Home Movie. She has produced 
 numerous award-winning films including "Something Strong Within" and "Toyo 
 Miyatake: Infinite Shades of Gray," an official selection of the Sundance 
 Film Festival. She served in the Japanese American National Museum in Los 
 Angeles for its first fifteen years as senior curator, senior producer, and 
 director of its Media Arts Center. She lives in Los Angeles.\n\nFor more
