Update: Emily Griffith Technical College’s response to recent violence against the AAPI community Read More

Update: Emily Griffith Technical College’s response to recent violence against the AAPI community

Since the pandemic took hold in the United States last March, there has been an increase in hate and violence against the Asian American Pacific Islander community across the country. This violence has continued in recent weeks culminating in the shooting of eight people including six Asian women in Atlanta on March 16th, 2021.

Racism and discrimination against the AAPI community has deep roots in our country, including racist policies starting in the 1880s with the Chinese Exclusion Act to through Japanese internment during World War II. Rhetoric regarding the coronavirus from our previous administration has continued to fuel this violence and hate.

We need to be here for one another as we deal with these events. We need to be open and able to have challenging conversations with each other, so we can navigate this together and seek the necessary change to make our world a better place.

At Emily Griffith, and alongside Denver Public Schools, we will continue to be a safe and welcoming space for all who wish to learn. Our staff, faculty and students deserve to be in an environment where everyone is treated with dignity and respect. We do not discriminate for any reason and we value your color, culture, origin, ancestry, class, career, religion, gender, orientation, marital status, veteran status, age or disability.

As a college, we are saddened by these violent acts and are reaffirming our commitment to breaking down biases, inequalities and inequities.

Please continue to treat one another with respect and compassion. Seek to understand. Always stand up for what is right, filling in the gap when someone cannot stand up for themselves.

Educational Resources:

–Asian Americans Advancing Justice: Organization focused on advancing civil and human rights for Asian Americans and on building and promoting a fair and equitable society for all.

EMILY’S STORIES

"Mr. G is excellent. One of the most patient teachers I've ever had," says Reuben. "He will sit and explain things to you; he knows how to translate the information."

Reuben Alcantar is a student in the Commercial/Residential HVAC & Refrigeration program. Rueben will complete his certificate this month and is already filing the paperwork to start his own HVAC business!

He decided to attend Emily Griffith after he was laid off from his job as a welder for Northwest Pipe Company when the company decided to close its Denver facility. He was eligible for a Trade Adjustment Assistance grant and after helping his neighbor with some HVAC work, decided he wanted to make it his new career.

He chose Emily Griffith because we understood his specific needs, particularly regarding childcare for his 7-year-old daughter. He also appreciates the hands-on experience that he’s received. “Mr. G is excellent. One of the most patient teachers I’ve ever had,” says Reuben. “He will sit and explain things to you; he knows how to translate the information.”

Vince Guerrie, HVAC instructor, says of Rueben, “He’s a natural leader. He always steps up to help. He’s going to be very successful.”

Rueben is looking forward to starting his own business and being his own boss. He hopes to be able to spend more time with his family but he says he will miss coming to Emily Griffith every day.

Congratulations Reuben!
