Journey to the East is a non-profit, Asian-interest week, held by 11 different Asian-interest organizations, to bring awareness to and celebrate Asian culture! All events are FREE to attend and are not USF-, nor Asian-exclusive. This year’s Journey to the East is themed based off of the award-winning movie, Divergent, and the five factions: Amity, Erudite, Candor, Dauntless, and Abnegation.
