Māori MPs briefly suspended the Aotearoa parliament’s attempts to reinterpret their founding treaty in the most bad ass use of the Haka I’ve ever seen.

Creating Change was amazing!!! NQAPIA did a stellar job organizing all the queer AANHPI workshops all week long! They say their east coast conference will be in Philly in September-ish. Not on their website yet, so wanted to announce it here!!

6 attendees for board games and dancing yesterday was perfect for this intimate nook we found at Spark Social! We played Uno Dare, Twisty Tealz (Mandarin), and Lakota language game There’s an Elk in the House (in honor of the holiday). Such good times! #gaysian #quasian #dance #sapphic #dc

Yesterday’s lunch crew at Full Kee! We went to ShareTea a few doors down afterward, got some boba/tea, and then hung out in a shaded park nearby. Nice turnout for a last minute plan!

Join Free DC this Sunday, May 18 at 1:30-3:30 for a guided tour of “Up from the People,” an exhibit on DC protest movements at MLK Library. We’ll explore history, reflect together, and connect it to our organizing. Great place to meet people and find ways to plug in. RSVP here: #lgbtq #sapphic #dc

This film was so good! Highly recommended. We had a good turnout too, and went for Korean chicken dinner afterward.

We had a very heartening book discussion and hotpot on Sunday! Eleven attendees included refugees from Cambodia and Vietnam. Some of us are interested in more political activity with APIQS, something we’ve steered away from in recent years. Interested? Let us know!
