Description: As young Taiwanese Americans, many of us have some memories of being dragged to our aunties or uncles houses while our parents had tea and grapes - seedless if we were lucky, but let’s be real - while we hoped there was a kid our age or better yet, the TV had cable. As we’ve come to discover our own intersectional identities in the Taiwanese diaspora, we have formed our own communities and networks through school organizations, community spaces, and professional organizations such as TAP-LA. One thing that’s still missing though, is the cross-generational conversation between our parents and grandparents and ours. Now that we are mature enough to sit at the table instead of begging to watch MTV, why not create space for these conversations?

This will be a series of casual afternoon-tea-style conversations on a virtual event platform, featuring a “soapbox speaker,” i.e. experts, community members, and leaders in the Taiwanese American community, favoring cross generational communication that we might not otherwise have the opportunity for.
