New Haven has been home to Yale University for nearly three centuries. As a center for business and a mecca for the arts, New Haven is recognized as a city of innovation, culture and prosperity. Approximately 20 square miles with nearly 130,000 residents and conveniently located between Boston and New York, New Haven is “large enough to be interesting, yet small enough to be friendly.”
We have created a curated listing of resources below that we hope you find helpful.
Asian Network at Yale is committed today, tomorrow, and the long road ahead to dismantle anti-Blackness, together as allies to the Black community.
We call the Asian Network at Yale and other members of the Yale community to take action through discussion, advocacy, and pledging to make lasting change.
Many resources are already available online, in books, films, and through the work of other organizations to dismantle institutional racism. The Social Justice Ad Hoc Committee has curated the following online resources based on the actionable steps it has pledged to take for the Asian Network at Yale community.
