Chu, I-Ting Emily

Asian Women United (AWU) was a New York-based nonprofit organization formed in 1978. With a distinctly feminist point of view, the organization sought to support, educate and empower Asian-American women. AWU explored Asian-American women's history and culture and mobilized community women in the political arena.

The Asian Women United Oral History Collection was taken to document the individual stories and contributions of members and to supplement the materials in the Asian Women United Records and Photographs (TAM 320) at the Tamiment Library and Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives. I-Ting Emily Chu conducted three oral histories for the Fall 2008 Oral History Seminar, taught by NYU professor Rachel Bernstein. Others were taken by Chu as part of her work at the Tamiment Library.
