Community Educators in Action: MinKwon Center

 

Watch the Video

This video highlights the space MinKwon Center has created for undocumented youth, through their Youth Empowerment Program (YEP), and the work of community organizers. Through YEP, the educators highlighted in this video have been able to engage in advocacy work and self-expression. In this conversation, they share their experiences as undocumented youth and delve deeper into what it is like taking on the role of community educators.

The video also speaks to the work that the organization has been doing with the Asian American community in Queens and beyond.
