Hi Friend,

Did you know that May is Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month? This month and every month, we’re celebrating the richness of AANHPI cultures, and calling out harmful myths that erase marginalized stories, especially in the fight for gender equity and reproductive care. 

AANHPI advocates have long been organizing for Reproductive Justice and have fought for the issues that impact everyone’s access to getting the care they need. From highlighting the wage gap, to eradicating language barriers in the healthcare system, fighting for abortion access, and calling out the systemic racism impacting people’s experience in the medical system, AANHPI leaders are CENTRAL to our movement. 

We’re spotlighting AANHPI-led organizations that are doing transformative work in the Reproductive Justice movement, specifically those that support gender justice and LGBTQIA+ liberation.

Check out our post on Instagram to learn more about these organizations and uplift their work!

And make sure to follow us @urge_org to stay tuned as we unpack how reproductive justice issues impact AANHPI communities. 

Remember, representation isn’t just about being seen -- it's about being centered, heard, and supported. 

In solidarity,
