This is an event happening in Los Angeles for two gentlemen that we personally know who are running for NY city council.  Hasn’t this been an amazing year with President Obama being sworn into office, finally breaking the color barrier in the highest office.  His victory is opening doors or motivating many Asian-Americans to consider politics and serving the wider community.  Two gentlemen – Kevin Kim and PJ Kim – are running for city council seats in the Queens and Manhattan boroughs of New York City.  If you’re in LA, come out to support them at:

Wokcano Santa Monica
