INTRODUCTIONAsian Student Union is one of the original organizations that resulted from the Third World Liberation Front in 1968. Originally, Asian Student Union was formed under the name Asian American Political Alliance, but the name was changed to Asian Student Union in 1974. Though our name has changed over years, our ideals remain the same. Founded on the principle of helping others find their voices, and being an outlet for those voices, Asian Student Union has promoted the ideas of history, struggles and involvement of Asian Americans in this country. Asian Student Union brings political awareness of issues pertaining to the Asian American community, as well as brings and preserves cultural aspects of the many Asian cultures to people of all ages, genders and ethnicities. Asian Student Union also supports the well-being of Asian communities across Northern California and the Bay Area through fundraising events and volunteer community work.
