This June, we celebrate Pride Month by commemorating and lifting up the voices and stories of remarkable individuals whose groundbreaking efforts have forged a path forward in the ongoing struggle for LGBTQIA+ rights and visibility.

May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and it serves as a time to celebrate and reflect on the culture, history, achievements, and continued work of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the U.S. Here at Antioch University, we take this time both to recognize the contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and to remember past injustices that our Federal, state, and local governments have perpetrated against these communities.

This Women’s History Month, we want to highlight ten Antiochian women who, in their own way, are advocating for equity, diversity, and inclusion. Read profiles of the Chair of Antioch’s Board of Governors, a student bringing sex therapy to her Japanese-American community, a writer excavating her past, a documentary filmmaker helping others tell their stories, an educator empowering students, a therapist working on the problem of Black maternal mortality, a dean passionate about reaching underserved populations, and a mobility activist fighting for safer streets.
