Are you a first generation Asian American? Have you ever felt marginalized by both White Americans AND FOBs? Do you feel like an outsider, even though you've been here all along?

Are you struggling to carve out a unique identity for yourself? Are you Asian? American? Either way, does the rest of the world always seem to get it mixed up?

This social group is focused on bringing together young Asian Americans that don't quite fit into typical Asian stereotypes to foster a sense of community and lasting friendships.

If you'd like to meet some great like-minded people who just might be in the same boat as you, please join us!

Meetups will be scheduled almost every week! Please email me with any suggestions you have for activities!

NYYAA would greatly appreciate donations, just a dollar or two to upkeep the group! Thank you!

Want to attend?

Instead of locking yourself in your apartment/condo/cube or hitting the usual bar scenes as the weather gets colder, let's join Iguana's free salsa class on Friday evenings before they open up their night club. Why not come out and showcase your dance moves? Read more
