Asian & Asian American Voices: Great Reads to Celebrate the Heritage

Asian & Asian American Voices: Great Reads to Celebrate the Heritage

Reading about different cultures other than our own is a great way to not only educate ourselves but creates empathy and understanding in our daily lives. Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month is honored in May and Asian & Asian American voices are always important to highlight but it is needed now more than ever due to discrimination and racism that is targeted towards this ethnicity…

I’m looking forward to Thursday’s Instagram Live with one of my forever besties @akannodavis. You will all remember her name one day because she is an incredibly gifted writer. The conversation we’ll be having is a topic I hope people still discuss, regardless of the latest news headlines. . In Amanda’s words, “Friends, many of you know that the topic of racism toward the AAPI community is important to me. As a Japanese-American, the increase in AAPI hate crimes/incidents has deeply affected me. Join me this Thursday in an Instagram live event as author Kathryn Purdie and I discuss some of my personal experiences with racism and micro-aggressions. My hope is that each of us will come away from this conversation with greater compassion and a greater knowledge of how we can help.” . We sincerely hope you can attend! . . . #stopaapihate #stopasianhate #aapivoices #iglive #aapicommunity #aapiauthors #standupforaapi https://www.instagram.com/p/CNqEhlzLqKi/?igshid=e7xbbxxmqq8e

“Work hard. Mischief harder.” ― Evelyn Skye, Circle of Shadows • • Hey Bookdragons! Happy Thursday! Today I’m catching up on some emails and blog posts then hopefully getting some writing time in. • • #standupforaapi book stack. These are just a few of the amazing books written by AAPI authors on my shelves (because my shelves are disorganized and I didn’t want to tackle that big of a project right now I couldn’t pull more). • • Q: What are some of your favorite books by AAPI authors? • • #supportasianauthorschallenge #stopasianhatestack #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookish #newbooks #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #booksofig #readersofinstagram #bookbloggersofinstagram #reading #bookquotes #bookdragons #bookishlife #bookaesthetic #booktography #bookcommunity #newbookstagram #bookishfeatures #alwaysreading #justread #tbrpost #quarantineandread #bookaholic #booksaremylife #instabooks #wisconsinbookstagrammer (at Clintonville, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM2RPshrNZ4/?igshid=x2t6psajr5lh

I’ve always said I left a part of my heart in Korea. It’s true! I am proud to #StandUpForAAPI. There are a million reasons why I 💜 this community, but the number one reason is their heart. I think the second picture encapsulates it more than words ever could. This first photo is of me after climbing to the top of Jaunbong, a mountain in Bukhansan National Park in South Korea. #stopasianhate #loveasian (at Bukhansan-Nationalpark) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMws1-urhsU/?igshid=2q4j222xx89w

I stand with authors and bookstagrammers to support the AAPI community. I have six favorite friends in this world, and three are Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders. My life is richer because of them. #standupforaapi #stopaapihate https://www.instagram.com/p/CMygWhbrvWr/?igshid=t95i1mdaojjv
