This paper explores how an Asian American teacher’s course initiative and the Anaheim Union High School District’s (AUHSD) strategies in teaching and community involvement advance social justice and combat anti-Asian violence in Orange County, California. Utilizing systems theory and informal and incidental learning theory, this study examines the effectiveness of AUHSD’s efforts. Findings reveal that the teacher’s approach effectively addresses discrimination, while AUHSD’s innovative curriculum and partnerships promote inclusivity and equity. This research underscores education’s critical role in building informed, inclusive communities.
