Northeastern University Asian American Heritage Month
On Monday, January 28, Northeastern’s Asian American Center opened an exhibit that was the result of a collaboration between two student-leaders running Northeastern’s Asian American Heritage Month, Melanie Barbini and Roshni Thyagrajan and the Archives and Special Collections. Melanie and Roshni collaborated to create an exhibit that represented Asian-American activism in Boston using the Chinese Progressive Associations (CPA) Records. Their goal was to provide an exhibit to help students better connect with Boston’s Asian-American communities surrounding campus. Melanie and Roshni curated the exhibit from the digitized CPA records and the Archives and Special Collections provided captions, printing, and mounting for the exhibit.
