abstract

  • In light of recent escalations in violence and discrimination against members of the Asian American community, it is important to raise awareness about and increase visibility of academic and social inequities that Asian American women psychologists face and provide strategies for increasing support. This call to action describes a framework for understanding racism as it applies to the unique intersectional experiences of Asian American women psychologists in the United States and inequities faced at the macro and micro levels. We provide concrete recommendations for institutions and individuals to develop and enhance DEI initiatives to counteract the processes and barriers that serve to exclude, marginalize, and invisibilize Asian American women psychologists.
