BU Asian Student Union: Breaking Boundaries 2017

Boston University's Asian Student Union (ASU) is proud to present our first ever speakers series: Breaking Boundaries! The mission of Breaking Boundaries is to shed light on the impact that Asians and Asian-Americans have made within their industries by inviting influential speakers to talk about their backgrounds, struggles, and successes. With minimal representation in society and media, Asians often find it difficult to chase their dreams and seek out sources of inspiration - especially when there are very few stories and role models to follow from our own race. ASU strives to break these boundaries and inspire change. Speakers: Canwen Xu (Opening Speaker): TEDx speaker Kevin Wu (KevJumba): YouTuber, comedian, and activist Cassey Ho (Blogilates): Social media fitness entrepreneur Nora Lum (Awkwafina): American rapper and actress
