I’m hearing on Facebook that John Delloro — community activist, educator and mentor — has passed away from a sudden heart attack. Delloro was an influential voice in the APIA community, most recently serving as the National President of the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance (APALA). He was honoured last year as #2 in APAP’s Top Asian American Unsung Heroes list.
My prayers go out to John’s family; the entire Asian American community grieves the loss of a vital and passionate voice this weekend.
