Social Media Toolkit

Texans for Asian American Studies Coalition is an advocacy coalition made up of students, parents, teachers, school leaders, nonprofits, and businesses who seek to advance the inclusion of accurate AAPI studies education into Texas' K-12 curriculum.

Purpose of This Toolkit

To introduce partner organizations and encourage advocates to #LearnOurStories and help drive action at the State Board of Education via social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat. As the State Board of Education finalizes the updated curriculum, it is crucial to radically reimagine an AAPI movement that centers OUR stories and changes what narrative and culture is represented to empower our communities.
