Kevin Boone is a steward for USW Local 9562 at the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh. As a Korean American and a fourth-generation union member, he was a proud first-time attendee at last year’s APALA Convention in Seattle, and he returned to his local determined to better support his fellow members. “The pride I feel contributing to the legacy of my AAPI siblings and their multiracial and transnational solidarity empowers me to experience a stronger connection to my heritage.”
