Activist, Civil Rights Icon Grace Lee Boggs Dies at 100 - NBC News

Rest in Power: AAPI voices remember Grace Lee Boggs. My article for NBC Asian America
"As a dialectical and revolutionary humanist, Grace believed that every one of us had a role to play in transforming ourselves to transform the world. At the same time, she began to express in her elder years a sense that Asian American had a unique and special role to play in breaking through the shackles that are holding back social justice," Kurashige told NBC News. "While Grace would be humbled and honored by all of the tributes coming her way, she would want everyone to use this moment to read, study, discuss, and organize to deepen their individual and collective philosophic knowledge."
