Discussing what to do with local APIMB in Boston - stepping up through AARW or keeping it as it is.

Helena - came back from the GGJ membership assembly - spoke a little. Been on the emails initiated with Grace Lee Boggs.

November Conference Call notes

Stacy - AIWA, CPA

Helena - initially planning to go. Funding is a problem.

Mike - APIM Boston will have a retreat, CPA Boston is not planning to go.

Last Social Forum there was a social. Appreciate networking.

Network with brainstorming, bring back to each own groups, build inventory of groups, use the list.

Or should we propose ideas and try to provide leadership;

Hear people what they're doing, what API Movement should do. What they would plug into. Getting a sense of what are the issues Asians are working on.
