Streamate's Elevate to Host AANHPI Heritage Month Q&A Series

SEATTLE — Streamate's community advocacy initiative Elevate is hosting a Q&A series, "AANHPI in Adult," to celebrate Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Heritage Month, taking place through May.

The series, which features creators and business professionals, "will prompt industry members to share their personal views on modern-day depictions of AAPI, takeaways as AAPI creators and business professionals, and favorite traditions," said a rep.

Elevate's Vanessa Eve, a first-generation Asian American, enthused about the program.

"It's important that we see people who look like us — who can identify with our lived and cultural experiences, whether in an adult or mainstream context," she said. "So it gives me tremendous pride to see AANHPI representation on the rise in adult, especially when it's in the form of empowering depictions that smash archaic stereotypes."
