The goals of this event - as introduced to me - were to raise awareness of anti-Asian violence and discrimination; share personal experiences; and put the recent Atlanta shootings into context.
Reflection (🪞) #1: Before I move onto the content of the event itself, I will state that this ask was infuriating to me because of conversations we had already had at Stanford last summer about not placing the onus on affected communities to share and to educate others.
I am excited to arrive in #Melbourne to take part in the first-ever Asian-Australian Leadership Summit, which aims to highlight and address the under-representation of Asian-Australians in political, business, government and civil society leadership. #AsianAusLeadership 
@Asialink_au @PwC_AU @OrgAALA @Austrade @BankofMelb @Committee4Melb @dfat @AusUnlimited @asiacapable @AsArticulations The Leading for Change report highlights the lack of #CulturalDiversity in senior leadership. While Anglo-Australians represent 58% of population, they hold 76% of senior leadership positions. Those from non-European background are under-represented by 16%. #AsianAusLeadership
