Mission Statement
The Asian American Friendship Congress (AAFC) is an organization dedicated to struggling against racism and negative perception of Asian peoples.
We recognize that the prejudice experienced by Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) is exacerbated by the corporate elites to create a wedge between working AAPI people and the rest of the American population. We aim to educate the American people on AAPI history in order to demystify prejudices, stereotypes, and negative perceptions of the AAPI community.
We also hope to foster closer bonds between the American people and the nations of East Asia and Southeast Asia. The AAFC seeks to normalize relations with these emerging Asian economies, especially those of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and the People’s Republic of China.
The AAFC also seeks to promote and preserve the diverse cultures which Asian immigrants have brought to our shores. These rich cultural aspects include cuisine, music, art, and languages.
