Last weekend, I had the immense pleasure & privilege of attending the GLBTQ+ Asian Pacific Alliance (GAPA) Anniversary Banquet! It was #QTAPI Excellence on display! Congressman Mark Takano delivered an inspiring keynote that reminded all of us to keep our dreams alive, no matter the circumstances. Bravo!

'To demonstrate how QTAPI use personal narrative to critique and revise the conditions of their exclusion, Hsu forwards a critical approach to storytelling, homing, which deliberately engages sites of alienation and belonging. Through a practice of diasporic listening [...etc.]'

Thanks Bay Area Reporter⁠ for publishing my op-ed yesterday on #HarveyMilkDay ! It meant a lot to introduce my 1st resolution in support of #QTAPI Week at SF Democratic Party on Harvey Milk's birthday. #QTAPI folks must unite with Democrats to protect our democracy, NOW! ebar.com/story.php?ch=N…
