Across the Pac-12, teams, universities & student-athletes celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
As the calendar turned to May, teams, athletics departments, universities and student-athletes across the Pac-12 have taken to social media to join in celebrating past, present & future figures from the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities who continue to push us all forward in the fight for equality. Then, now & always.
“If you have love for everybody, and if you have love for yourself you’re going to treat other people with love and that’s what we need right now.”
