Jewish and Asian Pacific communities live and flourish side by side, and recent raised incidents of bullying, assault and naked hatred have shown those ties are unbreakable. We will further cement our cooperation by forming an affinity and solidarity group, the Pennsylvania Asian Pacific American Jewish Alliance (PAPAJA), to work together on issues of common concern to the Jewish and Asian Pacific American communities. We pledge to stand with one another, speak about one another and honor the ideals that our heritage stands for. In doing so, we can help America finally meet its promise of a more perfect union, with liberty and justice for all.
