Asian Americans in the Anti-War Movement” Photo Exhibit. All proceeds from benefit will go to PAWIS (Peoples Association of Workers and Immigrants) a Filipino immigrant worker led and organized group that came together as a result of post-9/11 immigrant scapegoating which led to the massive lay off of Filipino airport screeners throughout the Bay Area. PAWIS continues to struggle for the rights and welfare of Filipino immigrant workers.
