ASA'S Future Proof
ASA believes work on racial justice can no longer remain at the margins for those of us who work to improve the lives of older people in this country. We plan on weaving it into the fabric of everything we do at ASA, including this new slate of Future-Proof broadcasts, which for the Summer season will center around Equity and Justice. Please tune in as Peter Kaldes, CEO of ASA, speaks with experts in aging whose work intersects with racial injustice and inequity, such as Robert Espinoza, Denny Chan, Karen Lincoln, Larry Curley, and Ai-Jen Poo.
