Robins AFB Library: Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month

AAPI Collection

About Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

The U.S. celebrates Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month each May. John F. Kennedy once said: “Our attitude towards immigration reflects our faith in the American ideal.” The American ideal is to recognize the rich cultural diversity of our nation and honor the contributions of all immigrants. Through traditional and social media, in theaters, museums, and parks, various events are organized to draw attention to Asian American and Pacific Islander culture. And to respect different immigrants let us support them in finding their path by helping them reach right resources of scholarships for Asian Americans and scholarships for Pacific Islanders that are for different ethnic groups around the U.S. and the globe.
